Event
Details
Since its first running in 1977, the Hudson Mohawk Road Runners Club's
Hangover Half Marathon & Sober-Up 3.5-Mile Run have become a
New
Year's Day tradition for runners in Albany, boasting a field of some
200 runners each year for this usually cold-weather race. The
half-marathon thankfully has a later starting time of 12:00 noon, and
is part of the club's Grand Prix Series of race events that take place
throughout the year.
The course for both races, which unfolds along the roadways of the
University at Albany (part of the State University of New York system)
and the nearby campuses of the state government
office buildings, is made up of entirely paved surfaces and is largely
flat, though with a few hilly stretches thrown in along the way.
Race
