The Palmetto Half Marathon is one of Columbia’s newest half marathons. We had a great inaugural race in 2010! The course starts in front of Plex Indoor Sports inside the Village at Sandhill and finishes at the Fountain in the center of the Village at Sandhill. The start time for the Half Marathon is 7 a.m., April 14, 2012.
The out and back course takes runners through parts of Northeast Columbia including The Woodland’s and Wildewood neighborhoods. Water stations are positioned approximately every 2 miles along the course. There will be bathroom facilities along the course as well as a First Aid tent that will be located near mile 4 and mile 9.
At the finish line participants will be awarded a finisher’s medal and will be able to enjoy food, drinks, music, awards & visit with the sponsors and the Health & Fitness vendors that will be there. After the race, participants and their families can enjoy visiting the local shops and restaurants at the Village at Sandhill.
There is a 4-hour time limit for this event. The half marathon race course closes at 11 a.m.
