White Mountain Milers Half Marathon, Quarter Marathon & 5K

Saturday, September 25, 2021 • North Conway, NH • Course Map

Sponsored by the White Mountain Milers, a nonprofit club devoted to promoting athleticism in the greater Mount Washington Valley of New Hampshire through running, walking and community service, the White Mountain Milers Half Marathon offers a fast and relatively flat course for the more than 400 runners and walkers who take part in the race every year.

Among the event’s highlights is the late-season fall foliage that forms the backdrop along this largely rural race route, which of course is reason enough to pay a visit. The race marks its 36th annual running in 2021, and proceeds from the race are donated to the Gretchen B. Hatch Memorial Scholarship Fund.

The starting and finish line for this out-and-back race is the Eastern Slope Inn in North Conway, located in the northeastern portion of the state, just over 5 miles from the Maine border. The course has only a few hills (and no big hills) and the race starts at 9:00 AM, and runners are encouraged to complete the race by 12:00 PM, as volunteers will begin removing water stations and other course support at this time.

For participants and/or spectators with children, there is also a White Mountain Milers Youth Dash, which is free for children up to age 12. Walkers are welcome in the half marathon, as long as they can keep a pace of 16 minutes per mile or better.
