The Hartness Half Marathon & 5K presented brings a cross-country style half marathon and 5K into Greenville, SC. Held on the Hartness Property just off Pelham Road near Interstate 85, these two great fifth year events give athletes the ability to race on pavement, trails, dirt roads, gravel roads and grass fields. Both the Half Marathon and 5K showcase the beautiful Hartness property that is currently being transformed from an industrial plot to a multi-use paradise, complete with living and recreational opportunities. While being run cross-country style, all surfaces will be well kept and this event is perfect for first-timers or Elite athletes alike.
“Hartness will embody the ideal hamlet ~ classic architecture, great urbanism, a pedestrian network that is celebrated over that of cars ~ inserted next to a mature nature preserve. This will form one of the next great neighborhoods in the South, providing a nurturing community for all who inhabit it.”… and we can’t wait to race it!!!
The Hartness Half Marathon & 5K is partnered with Set Up Events to make sure your racing experience is first-class, and will benefit Make-A-Wish South Carolina.

The Hartness 5k and Half marathon had their work cut out for them this year. The course had to change three times due to the rain that week. Day of race conditions were cold and windy.
Because of the Half going on during the 5k, there were no awards ceremony, but there was gloves awarded for the top 3 in each age group- which was 10 year gaps. You just showed the staff after you finished
The course itself was very pretty, but the last half mile was all uphill. I would not run this race again if that part of the course stayed the same.
