Trail to Tryon Holiday Half

The Trail to Tryon Holiday Half is a festive road race event held in New Bern, North Carolina, featuring three distances: a half marathon, 10K, and 5K. Despite its name, the race takes place on paved roads, starting at the historic gates of Tryon Palace and winding through New Bern’s charming downtown, waterfront parks, and scenic residential neighborhoods. The race finishes at the NC History Center, where a lively post-race celebration with food, drinks, and awards awaits participants.

Scheduled in early December, this event offers a perfect final run of the year amid the holiday spirit and local festivities, making it a fun and community-focused experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
