In the heart of Amish Country where the whistle of steam engines echo in the distance you’ll run the rolling hills through some of the best farmland in the area. Most of which are preserved by the work done at the Lancaster Farmland Trust. Run by the film favorite “Witness” … MORE

    Even though EVERYBODY missed the first turn and ran up to 2 miles extra, I really enjoyed this race. Yes, it was hilly but it’s PA…that’s expected. Not anywhere close to how I wanted it to go but I really enjoyed the weather, the views, and even all the smells. We were cheered on by so many animals! Around mile 9, I made a friend and we ran/walked and talked until we finished. I’d definitely do this race again! Pizza and whoopie pies at the finish!

    Pros-
    – It doubles with the Wineglass Marathon in New York.

    Cons-
    – The course is scenic but the whole course smells like cow manure. You will need a strong stomach to finish.
    – Unless you ae planning to run a sub 2:30 half, you will need to know the course. They had picked up all of the cones leading to the finish by the time I got there so I had to run around a while to find the finish line. I ended up running close to 15 miles all together.
