Happy Half at Holiday Valley

We want to help put the FUN into running. Sometimes it is not just about the distance, it is how you get there and what you do after the event. The Happy Half at Holiday Valley will have fun distractions on course (we aren’t talking bubbles and Unicorns – but you never know), entertainment, great food and beer as part of a great party at Holiday Valley Resort after you get done. With the award winning Southern Tier Brewery providing the refreshments how can you go wrong? The day will feature a Half Marathon, 5k, and a Beer Mile for those with iron stomachs. We want our participants to enjoy their run so there will be a few surprises out on course that will make you smile. Make sure to bring your smiles to run the miles!

Both the 5K and half marathon start and finish at Holiday Valley Resort in the town of Ellicottville. Holiday Valley Resort offers world class accommodations and amenities. The rolling course heads north through scenic, lightly traveled, rural roads that offers fast times and a great atmosphere. Intersections will be controlled by the local Police and County Sheriff Departments to ensure a safe experience for all participants.

Custom designed medals as well as men’s and women’s specific shirts for both 1/2 Marathon and 5k finishers. High quality fitted t-shirts for participants, if you like a looser fit order up in sizing.
