Taskinas Creek Half Marathon : Overview

The Taskinas Creek Half Marathon is scheduled for Sunday, June 7, 2026, at York River State Park near Williamsburg, VA. The event is presented as a "no frills" Hike-a-Half format that emphasizes inclusivity rather than competition. Registration is limited to 250 entrants. Official results, including overall and age-group listings, will be posted on Ultrasignup. Finishers may take a finisher medal; overall and age-group awards are not included this year. A special PR coaster award is offered to runners who beat their previous time on the half marathon course.

Course and logistics

The race is a mostly trail-surface half marathon with mixed terrain: more than half single-track mountain bike trail, about 1 mile of pavement, and the remainder dirt fire-type road. Elevation is around 600 ft with rolling terrain and a notably tough final 2 miles. Aid stations are planned at approximately miles 3.1, 6.5, and 10.5 and will provide fueling foods, water, and electrolytes. The course will be well marked. There is a 5-hour time limit. Packet pick up is available on race day only, and there is no race-day registration. T-shirts are not included in registration and must be added separately by the ordering deadline of Friday, May 17. Free parking is available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
