Runners start the out-and-back course for the half marathon near the offices of Bandwidth.com, located along the Weston Parkway near Lake Crabtree. From there, the course takes runners through Weston Lakeside and into the nearby William B. Umstead State Park, where they’ll make their way along an upside-down V-shaped out-and-back route to Trenton Place and back, with plenty of tree-lined roads through the forest and moderately challenging hills.
