About the race
The Canaan Valley Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K is an annual road race event held at Canaan Valley Resort in Davis, West Virginia, nestled in the scenic Potomac Highlands. This destination race offers runners a chance to experience the natural beauty of Tucker County, near Dolly Sods, Canaan Mountain, and Blackwater Falls State Park. The event spans two days, with all distances available on both Saturday and Sunday, plus a kids' race on Saturday afternoon.
Participants enjoy a welcoming atmosphere with local swag including a McClumsy hat and handmade finisher mug, post-race snacks, and a complimentary beer for those over 21. The race features a generous four-hour course time limit and encourages a "Conquer the Valley Challenge" for those seeking extra competition. Nearby mountain towns provide cultural attractions, making it an ideal runcation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
