Runners follow an out-and-back course for the fall RaceVermont.com half marathon that’s identical to the spring race, which starts at the Shelburne Health & Fitness center at The Field House, just off Shelburne Road. From there, the course heads first south into town and the residential neighborhoods just south of Harbor Road, followed by a long stretch along the peninsula that sticks out into Shelburne Bay and Lake Champlain, with long stretches past green, wide-open farm fields and along the lakefront.
