The 2022 event not only features the full marathon, but also a half marathon, team relay option, and a virtual option for runners who can’t make the race day, or can’t travel to Mathews.
Run along the peaceful, rural backroads of beautiful Mathews County, Virginia. This race features a fast, flat course that winds through dirt, gravel and paved roads past the serenity of one of Virginia’s last great countrysides featuring marshland and glimpses of the Chesapeake Bay. Registration will close on October 6.
