Half Marathon Start

8th & Broad Street in downtown Richmond (the marathon and 8k courses also start on Broad Street at 3rd and 7th Street, respectively). View Start Area Map (coming soon)

Finish

The Allianz Richmond Marathon, CarMax Richmond Half Marathon, and Capital One Richmond 8k all end the same way: a downhill run to the finish at 5th & Byrd Streets. From there, head to Brown’s Island and Historic Tredegar for the CoStar Group Post Race Party, all along Richmond’s downtown riverfront.

All participants must be able to finish the half marathon in 4 hours. In order to do so, you will need to maintain a 18:19 per mile pace. The race is USA Track & Field sanctioned and certified.
