Mother's Day Run for the Roses: Half Marathon

Mother's Day Run for the Roses in Coplay, Pennsylvania, held May 10, 2026, offers a Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, and a combo option on the Ironton Rail Trail. The flat, fast half-marathon route is two loops of about 6.55 miles on asphalt, with an approximate 184-foot elevation gain per loop. Aid stations sit about every two miles.

The event emphasizes a celebratory atmosphere: a fresh rose for all women finishers, an inflatable finish line, post-race food, and a family-friendly vibe with walkers welcome. There is a non-binary registration option with its own awards, plus plaques for first-time half finishers. Swag includes a t-shirt, medal, socks, and finish-line photos.
