🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

My Better Half is back at Seward Park and dare we say better than ever! Prepare yourself for a running event like no other. Romance. Kitsch. Sweat. My Better Half Marathon is a celebration of running, romance and rom-coms. There are 4 categories: - Bromance: Two guy friends - Besties: Two best friends - Lovers: Romantically involved - Lonely Hearts: Self-explanatory Join Orca Running, February 9th, 2025 as we celebrate love in all of its forms!

👫 Registration Categories

Lover's registration is for couples of all kinds! Bestie's registration is for two girlfriends, mom and daughter, guy and gal, or anyone you call your bestie. Bromance registration is for two dudes who probably don't want to admit that they're inseparable. Lonely Heart's registration is for those currently enjoying being single or looking for love.

🏅 Course Details

The half marathon course is a total of 2 laps. - First lap: 6.9 miles with a steep but quick hill early on - Second lap: 6.2 miles long and is nice and flat! The 10K course is also 2 laps. - First lap: 3.7 miles with some hills in the beginning - Second lap: 2.5 miles long and is nice and flat! The 5K course is 3.1 miles long. A steep but quick hill in the beginning is a great warm-up but once you come back down it’s a breeze!

🔄 Half Marathon Relay

The relay course can be completed in any way you prefer, as long as both laps are completed. - Lap one: 6.9 miles long with a quick but steep hill in the beginning - Lap two: 6.2 miles long and is nice and flat! It doesn’t matter who completes which lap. There is a relay hand off area just before the finish line (in the park gazebo) where you make the exchange from one runner to the other.

🎁 Race Amenities

Your entry comes with long sleeve 1/4 zip shirt, finisher medal, hot post oatmeal, and free race photos!
