Ellerbe Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, big temp swing
A cool 42°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temps will climb significantly to 60°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

Race Info
The Ellerbe Half Marathon is a single 13.1-mile loop on paved country roads through Richmond County, North Carolina, run on the Saturday of race weekend. The course leaves Page Street in Ellerbe, drops down Bruton Road, and climbs Darkside Mountain before returning along Grassy Island Road. It is a rolling, hilly course rather than a flat one, with a finish on Sunset Avenue beside the Ellerbe Rescue Squad building. The course is USATF-certified.
