1/2 Marathon Course Map
Join us for a beautiful run through Historic, tree-lined streets, down Canandaigua's charming Main Street, along beautiful Canandaigua Lake, and through spacious city parks. We like to think that we're hitting all of the great places that make Canandaigua so beautiful!
The race begins at Canandaigua Academy where there is ample parking (and plenty of rest rooms!). Runners will run around the historic Canandaigua Veterans Administration campus and past the Sonnenberg Mansion. After exiting Sonnenberg and running through Canandaigua's historic district runners will head South and enjoy a steady decline towards the lake. It's a quick jog over to West Lake Road and then up a short incline through Ferris Hills. Runners may be cursing the hill at first, but will be thankful to be headed down Butler Road instead of heading in the other direction! After a run along the lake it's back into town, up the steady but slight incline of Pearl Street, through Baker and Outhouse Parks, and then on to the finish!
Although there are some hills on this course, organizers have taken great care in avoiding the steepest or most difficult routes. We think it will be easy to forget the miles you're traveling surrounded by the beauty of the streets and the lake that make up this course.
Please Note: The course will only be secured until 10:30am. If you anticipate completing in 2 1/2 or more, please consider taking advantage of the "early" start time at 7:30am.
Runners will still be timed after 10:30am, and water stations will remain open, but roads will re-open at this time. Runners may need to stop at intersections to wait for crosswalks to clear before proceeding.
Water stations will be located at miles 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 & 12.
Bathrooms are located at the start/finish line, Mile 7, and Mile 10
