The 7th annual Runner’s World Half & Festival, October 19-21 in Bethlehem, PA welcomes runners of all levels to a one-of-a-kind weekend that covers a full 26.2 miles over three days, from a 3.8-mile trail race to a half marathon. Join us for one, or race them all with one of our multi-distance challenges. The racecourses will feature Bethlehem’s historic neighborhoods, including some of the town’s original 1741 settlement, Moravian College, and the former Bethlehem Steel complex—where the backbone of the nation was literally forged.

Gordon 's thoughts:

I decided to run my first half marathon here, figuring that, if anyone can put on a great race, Runners World would know how to do it.

I was not disappointed!

The Expo was outstanding, with tons of vendors and many different seminars to choose from. Packet pickup was a breeze, and parking was free. On the day of the race, they had shuttles to and from the parking areas.

The course had a few challenging hills, but was mostly downhill after mile 7. Great coverage at all the aid stations, and every aspect was extremely well organized.

I had such a great time, I'm running this again in 2015, this time going for the hat trick (5k, 10k, and half).
