From the Organizer

It turns out one really is the loneliest number… especially when you’re training for a half marathon. So join up with other motivated runners as you embark on a 14-week program that prepares you for the CarMax Richmond Half Marathon, a companion race of the Allianz Richmond Marathon. Our training teams have an incredible corps of experienced coaches, as well as dedicated SAG support for those long weekend runs, and we even offer informational clinics to keep you up-to-date on the latest in gear, nutrition, injury prevention and more. Did we mention this might be the coolest way to meet people in Richmond? Okay, so we don’t have proof, but we can guarantee you’ll end up with a few more pals than you had before.
