About the Hampton Half Marathon & 5K
The course runs along Hampton Beach with ocean views throughout. It is flat and quick, the kind of route where the Atlantic is right there beside you for most of the run. The finish is right on the coast, and the breeze off the water tends to follow you in.
After the race, there is craft beer and post-race snacks at the finish area. It makes for a decent reason to linger, especially if the weather cooperates.
