Saturday, June 1, 2019 • Raleigh, NC • Course Map
Part of a series of half marathons across the Southeast known as the Race 13.1 Series, the Raleigh Spring race runs along an out-and-back course that starts and finishes in the Raleigh neighborhood known as North Hills, at the shopping center at the intersection of Lassiter Mill Road and Currituck Drive.
The Greenway Trail System, in which most of the race is run on is part of a system of trails which is expected to grow to more than 100 miles of trails throughout this part of the state in the next few years.
The Crabtree Creek Greenway trail features paved, flat surfaces throughout, taking runners through a combination of neighborhoods and off-the-beaten-path parks and forests.
From the starting line runners will head northeast on Lassiter Mill Rd, followed by a left onto Pamilico Drive and a right on Northbrook Dr. Just before the first mile mark, the course takes a left and heads north on Six Forks Road followed by a left onto Shelly Rd for the next mile.
Runners will loop around Shelley Lake Park for miles 3 and 4 before heading back south along Millbrook road.
After winding their way south, the course crosses 70 and heads west along Crabtree Valley Ave for an out and back with the turnaround point around mile 9. Â Halfway between mile 11 and 12, runners will make their way back onto Northbrook Dr, taking a right onto Pamilico Dr where the start/finish line is located.
The half marathon is open to walkers as well as runners, provided they can finish 13.1 miles in 3 hours, 3o minutes.
