Pocahontas Half

The Pocahontas Half is a scenic running event held at Pocahontas State Park in Chesterfield, Virginia. It features a half marathon, 10k, and 5k race, all taking place along the forested Bright Hope Trail. The course offers a soft running surface of dirt and pine needles with some minor hills, providing a natural and peaceful atmosphere.

The half marathon is an out-and-back route completed twice with an initial detour, while the 5k and 10k are single out-and-back courses. Participants receive a finisher’s coin, technical shirt, and chip timing. Walkers are welcome, and a virtual race option is available.

The event supports Operation Turbo charity. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
