AthHalf Named #1 College Town Race (halfmarathons.net)

Runners will enjoy a gorgeous autumn-time run that begins in downtown Athens before weaving through the historic Boulevard, Normaltown, and Cobbham neighborhoods.

And we’ll have live music throughout the course to keep you energized and having fun!
