During times of a pandemic, we all have a desire to be in touch with the outdoors...perhaps even more than ever! We're trying something new- Small Group Half Marathons.

Run in the destinations you've always wanted to go to, but experience it in a more personal way. These events feature multiple race starts (at different times of the day) to reduce the crowds. Each location is tailored to follow state and local guidelines. 

We invite you to join us and let us know what you think!

Since we launched in 2012 over 40,000 people have joined us at the world's most gorgeous locations to run, explore, and make lasting memories.

Mount Rushmore was fantastic!

This is my third Vacation Race! I loved all of them! Mount Rushmore was fantastic! It was incredibly easy to get around the area! Keystone was so quaint! The course had many “holy moly” moments but so beautiful! Thank you for another wonderful race!

Such a fun and beautiful race

This was such a fun and beautiful race. And the three days of camping were awesome, right near the finish line.

the most stunning, challenging course I've ever done.

Glacier was the most stunning, challenging course I’ve ever done. It was gorgeous. I can’t wait to get back in 2018!

Vacation Races, you have spoiled me!

So far, of all the races I've ran, VR have been the best supported races with the coolest finish. This was a tough and rewarding course. I will do it again.
