Black Bear Half Marathon

Website

The Black Bear Half Marathon & 8k, presented by Hunter Subaru, is an annual fall running event held in Hendersonville, North Carolina, nestled in the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains. The race features a USATF-certified half marathon (13.1 miles) and an 8k (5 miles) course, both starting and ending at Jackson Park. The mostly flat courses traverse paved roads and forested greenways with less than 400 feet of elevation gain, offering beautiful autumn vistas.

Participants enjoy a supportive community atmosphere, commemorative medals, custom race shirts, and post-race festivities including live music, local vendors, and the Black Bear Fall Market. A virtual race option is also available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
