anybody know of a half marathon in august or september that would be driving distance (or an easy flight) from atlanta?
so far, i see asheville, richmond rock-n-roll, and danville. ideally, i’d like something the last weekend in august or somewhere around there.
thanks!

Did you already check active.com? They usually have a good amount of listings…or you could try the race calendar on Runners World.com.
My .02 hope you find something great.
thanks - tried both. not seeing a lot on active…maybe the south just focuses on shorter events in the heat?? not much for the longer stuff it seems.
runners world had a couple. i keep thinking there have got to be some good little local events that just don’t have a lot of web visibility.
Not sure if you’ve seen this web site:
www.trifind.com
It’s the most comprehensive list of triathlons I’ve found. Good luck!
A couple weeks back, I got a postcard for a new 1/2 marathon in Rosemary Beach, Florida between Destin and Panama City Beach on September 11.

Very flat course. I think you don’t even get the tertiary dune line that far east like you do for Seaside’s 1/2 marathon course. It’ll be more than humid enough to be challenging though.
fla jill - perfect - this might be the one! driving distance and i’ve got friends with a place to stay there. thanks!!
toymaker - thanks on trifind as well. i have used that in the past, but forgot about it.
