Details
A brand-new half marathon for 2007, the Patrick Henry Half Marathon
takes the scheduled place of the Battlefield Half Marathon, which had
been run in past years on this weekend in Varina, Va. The new Patrick
Henry Half will take advantage of Hanover County's rolling county
roads, just outside Ashland, with the start and finish at Poor Farm
Park.
Perhaps known best as the home of Randolph-Macon College, Ashland is a
town of about 6,000, and runners will enjoy the town's sights including
a wealth of large Victorian homes, quaint residential neighborhoods and
plentiful parks and trails.
