About the WALLINGFORD HALF MARATHON & 5K RACES
This race was created to honor a local runner, and that origin shapes the whole morning. The course runs through Bellevue with aid stations spread along the way and live entertainment at points on the route. Both a half marathon and a shorter option are available, so the field draws a range of people connected to the same community.
Early packet pickup happens the day before the race. Post-race, food trucks are on site, and there is a health and fitness expo. Proceeds go toward a memorial scholarship in the honoree's name and other local charities.
