Runners start the out-and-back course for the Monadnock Half Marathon at the boathouse next to Pearly Lake, along University Drive. From there, they first head south toward Route 119, where they make a left and loop back around to University, and then head north into the campus of Franklin Pierce University. There’s a long stretch out-and-back along Mountain Road, Ingalls Road and Great Road, before heading back to the lake for the race finish.
