2018 marked my third year in a row running the half marathon race at Fort Ben. This race has become my favorite half marathon race. It’s got the feel of a trail run, but the entire course is paved. (I won’t run trail races for fear of tripping and falling.) I love everything about this race: the 1/4 zip tech shirt, the beautiful scenery, the enthusiastic cadets at every water stop, the medal, the post-race atmosphere, the free cookout and free photos.

The course is mostly flat with a few rolling hills at mile 2.6 and miles 10-11. They provide a nice challenge if you’ve been logging lots of flat training miles and a perfect tune-up for their sister race just a month away (the Monumental half or full). I will be back year after year for this one!
