The Fall 2017 Half Marathon Class is a 12-week program preparing individuals to participate in a half marathon this fall. The class starts on Thursday, September 7, 2017 at 1st Place Sports, Town Center Store (4870 Big Island Drive) at 6:30 PM (come prepared for a short run that evening).
The class can serve as a stepping stone for those planning to complete a marathon in December or January. The target half marathon is the Subaru Distance Classic Half Marathon on Thanksgiving Day, November 23, 2017. If not able to participate on Thanksgiving Day, a good alternate half marathon would be the Ameris Bank Half Marathon on December 16, 2017.
About The Race: Begun in December 1977 as an English-style true cross-country race, our 5k competition for individuals and teams has become renowned for its unique, challenging course on the campus of Jacksonville University.

This year the race starts at 8:00 A.M.!!
