Greenbrier Half Marathon

Greenbrier Half Marathon is run on May 8, 2027, in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. Three distances start within a quarter of an hour of each other: the half marathon (13.1 mi) at 6:45 a.m., the 10K (6.2 mi) at 6:55 a.m. and the 5K (3.1 mi) at 7:00 a.m. No elevation gain is listed.

Starting the three races almost together makes the opening mile the busiest part of the morning, with half-marathoners settling in while 5K runners are already flat out: hold your own pace and let the short-distance field go. For the half, a 6:45 a.m. gun also means eating some three hours earlier than usual, so rehearse that breakfast on a long run rather than trying it for the first time on race morning.
