Berkeley Half

Berkeley Mapathon & Half is a running event held in Berkeley, California. It offers two distances: a half marathon (13.1 miles) and a full marathon (26.2 miles). Teams of 1–5 members navigate a course using a custom map, guiding them through a dozen to two-dozen checkpoints and one aid station.

There are separate divisions for foot and foot+bike. Participants explore Berkeley’s highlights and lesser-known spots, with refreshments and socializing at the finish. The experience emphasizes navigation and teamwork over speed, culminating in a finish-area gathering.

The event is located near 1275 Walnut St., Berkeley, CA. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
