Race Overview

The Covered Bridges Half Marathon is widely regarded as one of the most scenic and well-loved half marathons in New England. With a picturesque course through Vermont’s countryside and a strong community spirit, this race delivers an unforgettable 13.1-mile experience.

Time Limit & Course Support -To respect our volunteers and local communities, our race finish line closes at 11:15 AM.
This race has a strict three-hour (3:00:00) course time limit, beginning with the official starting gun at 8:15 AM. The finish line closes at 11:15 AM, three hours after the starting gun. Runners must cross the finish line before 11:15 AM to receive an official finish time. All course cutoff times and support service closures are based on gun time, regardless of when an individual runner crosses the start line. Each runner’s individual race time is measured using the timing chip attached to their race bib, beginning when they cross the start line. However, individual chip timing does not extend the official course time limit or the availability of course support services.
We encourage all participants to:
Train appropriately
Know your pace
Prioritize safety at all times
