The CHaD HERO Half Marathon is a challenging yet rewarding course. Runners will run by some of Hanover and Dartmouth College’s most historic buildings and architecture before heading over the Connecticut River into Norwich, Vermont.
After passing through downtown Norwich, runners will climb and then be rewarded with peaceful countryside and stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Heading back to Hanover, the course takes a final turn along the river offering a chance to catch your breath before heading back over the Ledyard Bridge and finishing back at the Dartmouth Green.
Whether you’re a seasoned half marathoner or looking to challenge yourself to a new goal, the CHaD HERO Half Marathon is the perfect opportunity to push your limits and experience the beauty of the Upper Valley.

Go Maureen ?!!!!
I am torn between the adult hike and the adult half marathon. If I sign up for the half marathon could I switch events on race day?
