Runners looking for the chance to set personal record times will have that opportunity at St. Luke’s D&L RaceFest and the D&L Heritage Half Marathon, presented by St. Luke’s. The half marathon course starts in historic Downtown Bethlehem and passes one of the world’s newest UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and enters the D&L Trail at mile 0.6 before continuing east along the Lehigh River to the finish in Easton.
