Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon, Charity 5K and Team 26.2 Relay

Be inspired in Hartford with a glorious start in front of the majestic Capitol. Marathon and half marathon courses venture into the welcoming neighborhoods of West Hartford, full of cheering race spectators, with a short pass through beautiful Elizabeth Park in West Hartford.

Marathoners veer off from half marathon participants and head over the Founders Bridge, traveling along the scenic East Hartford side of the river before hitting the rural and serene town roads of South Windsor, where the course highlights its quintessential New England charm. Journey back to Hartford to finish just past the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch in Bushnell Park and celebrate with food and music in the park and beer garden festivities.

The 13.1 mile course will split from the marathon in Hartford, about 8 miles in, before half marathoners enjoy a run along the river. The downtown Hartford finish delivers that joyous and memorable moment crossing under the Arch, along brilliantly colored mums lining the path.

The Charity 5K will run through downtown Hartford. Expect a fast race for competitive runners that also welcomes casual runners and walkers to accomplish goals finishing under the arch.

Those looking for a fun way to get in on the action together with others can enjoy the Team 26.2 Relay with options for 2-5 team members to run in legs along the marathon course.

A memorable experience awaits, with meaningful swag, well supported courses, thorough medical and security services and a great celebration in store. Plus, many options are available to engage with community charities, enhance the race experience with extras or participate in multi-race series to add challenge goals and rewards.
