Koala Bottle Harbison Half Marathon and 5K

The Koala Bottle Harbison Half Marathon and 5K is a trail running event held at Harbison State Forest in Columbia, South Carolina. The race takes place during July, providing participants with a seasonal trail experience in the local forest environment. The event features two distinct distances:

  • 13.1 miles (Half Marathon)
  • 5 km

The courses for both distances utilize the trail system within Harbison State Forest. Participants receive a t-shirt and a finishers medal upon completing their respective races. Registration options are available for both the long-distance trail run and the shorter 5K distance.

Packet pick-up is organized at two different times and locations. On the day before the race, participants can collect their materials at Fleet Feet Columbia in Irmo. On the morning of the event, packet pick-up is available directly at Harbison State Park. A host hotel is designated at the Hampton Inn at Harbison for those traveling from outside the Columbia area.
