Whether you’re just hitting the road for the first time or already passionate about the sport, YuKan races provide fun, festive and competitive events where everyone is welcome.
The starting line for the Fast Half Marathon is located on Bay Road in Hamilton. The very same road that is home to the prestigious Myopia Hunt Club that hosts some of the world’s most celebrated polo matches. Runners will enjoy racing along the idyllic countryside and open pastures of Hamilton. Then, continue your run as you soak up the New England charm of antique barns and fieldstone walls in neighboring communities of Ipswich and Essex. Come enjoy a day in the country as you race towards our huge finish line arch!
This single loop course is mostly flat and fast with a few gently rolling hills. Racers are sure to meet new friends as well as fierce competitors along the way. This is an officially sanctioned and certified USATF race.
Registrants will receive an awesome YuKanRun.com Fast Half race shirt. Plus, when you complete the half marathon you’ll also earn a custom YuKanRun.com Fast Half finisher’s medal. With all that running, you deserve it!

They advertise this course as a flat and fast course, which it is not flat. It is primarily rolling hills with an elevation total around 400ft gain. Communication from Yukan was minimal to say the least, there wasn’t any music or ” party”at the finish, and only one photographer at the finish line. You run along some busy roads with traffic and the course was very difficult to manage at times – not certain which way to go. You get very little for the money you spend.
Great Pre and post race location
The course is open, not groomed and hard to follow. The school accommodations pre and post race are a plus. Definitely not high end, but a fun way to break … MORE
The course is open, not groomed and hard to follow. The school accommodations pre and post race are a plus. Definitely not high end, but a fun way to break up the winter.
