Course and race notes
It turns out one really is the loneliest number… especially when you’re training for a half marathon.
So join up with other motivated runners as you embark on a 14-week program that prepares you for the CarMax Richmond Half Marathon, a companion race of the Allianz Richmond Marathon.
In the organizer's words, from the race's own listing.
