Race Info
The Wilmington Half Marathon is a flat, point-to-point 13.1-mile course on a USATF-certified route. It starts on Wagoner Road in front of Hoggard Hall on the UNCW campus and runs through Wilmington's seaside neighborhoods to the Cape Fear River. The finish is on the downtown waterfront, with a net elevation change of only about 40 feet, which makes it one of the faster half marathons on the East Coast.
