About the Run the Vineyards - Cork High & Bottle Deep - Half Marathon

The course starts and finishes at Blue Cork Winery, a vineyard property with indoor and outdoor seating where the after party runs for several hours. The route is mostly paved and flat, with a short stretch across vineyard grounds. On-course music and cheer stations are scattered along the way, and police manage the road crossings.

Packet pickup is available the day before at a local running shop in Mullica Hill, with race-morning pickup at the winery itself. Plan to arrive well before the start. Afterward, there is a live band, wine, and several food trucks on site, plus a massage therapist available for post-race work.
