Hilltopper Half Marathon
The Hilltopper Half Marathon, organized by the Eastern Dutchess Road Runners Club, takes place in Millbrook, NY. This 13.1-mile race features a challenging course with an elevation gain of 787 feet, winding through the scenic countryside of the town of Washington. Runners enjoy views of lakes, ponds, and farmland along mostly open roads with self-service water stations every few miles.
The event is not recommended for novice runners due to its hilly terrain. Limited to 50 participants, the race supports pancreatic cancer research through the Lustgarten Foundation. Awards are given to top male, female, and non-binary finishers, and finisher medals are provided to early registrants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
