AthHalf 2020 Moves to Virtual Format

The 2020 AthHalf Half Marathon & 5K will be virtual races.

We know moving to a virtual format isn’t the same as the high-energy, community-loved, in-person races we’ve had for the past 10 years, but it is necessary to best protect the health and safety of our runners, volunteers, spectators, and our larger community.

Virtual runners complete the on-line registration, run a consecutive half marathon or 5K distance anytime from their date of registration to October 25, 2020, and submit their time to the AthHalf race director. Once we have received your time, you will have the option to pick-up your race shirt and finisher’s medal (half marathon only) on October 25 or have it mailed to you.

The 2020 virtual races will have:

• overall and age groups awards for the half marathon and 5K, so your finish time definitely matters!

• a race day celebration with live music at Southern Brewing Company on Sun., October 25th for all participants to pick up their race shirt, finisher’s medal (half marathon only), and included draft beer! (note: attendance will be staggered to allow for social distancing)

• a discount code to use for the 2021 AthHalf Marathon & 5K!

Registration for the AthHalf virtual races is open through October 23, 2020 at 5:00 pm.

AthHalf is produced annually by the 501(c)(3) nonprofit, AthFest Educates, and the race helps supports the organization’s mission of funding high-quality music and arts programming for K – 12 youth. When you run the AthHalf, you are directly impacting a child’s access to music and the arts. Thank you!
