Trail to Tryon Holiday Half

The Trail to Tryon Holiday Half is a festive road race held in New Bern, North Carolina, featuring three distances: a half marathon, 10K, and 5K. Despite its name, the event takes place on paved roads, starting at the historic gates of Tryon Palace and winding through New Bern’s charming downtown, waterfront parks, and residential neighborhoods, finishing at the NC History Center. The race offers a celebratory atmosphere with a post-race waterfront party at Bate Commons, including food, drinks, awards, and family-friendly activities.

Scheduled in early December, it serves as a perfect final run of the year, encouraging participants to enjoy the holiday spirit and local culture. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
