Bird in Hand Half Marathon & 5K

Experience a Race Like No Other. Old-world practices. Lush countryside. Hard-working people. All these things and more make BIH Half a special experience. But some things can’t be described – like the sense of community that follows well after you cross the finish line. Tour the gorgeous Amish farmlands of Bird-in-Hand, PA.The Bird in Hand Half Marathon course runs through the Valley of No Wires and half marathon finishers will earn their horseshoe finisher’s medal! REAL horseshoes from REAL horses on the farms in our community, not some factory medal made to look-like a horseshoe. They’re big and heavy and each one is unique, just as each runner is unique. Fully supported course, water stations every two miles, every mile marked, every turn on the course marked, rest stops at one room school houses, run through a real working Amish farm, chip timing, tech shirts, age group awards, FREE parking right at the start/finish area and so very much more! The Hand-in-Hand Fire Company challenges you to run two races – 5K on Friday evening and Half Marathon on Saturday morning! Show your strength and earn a bonus premium item. Do not wait to register – the half marathon always sell out! And it’s a hard cap. LESS
