Taskinas Creek Half Marathon

Williamsburg, United States • 7 Jun 2026

Event Format

The Taskinas Creek Half Marathon for 2026 is described as a "no frills" or "Hike-a-Half" event. The organizer's stated goal is to be inclusive rather than competitive, with the aim of keeping entry fees low.

What's Included

Participants will receive official results posted online, a finisher medal, and a special coaster award for setting a new personal record on this course. The event includes free parking, aid stations, and a well-marked course.

What's Not Included

T-shirts are not included in the standard registration and must be purchased separately by a deadline. There will be no overall or age group awards, and only light food like fruit will be available at the finish, not a full lunch.

Course Details

The half marathon course is mostly on trails. It includes single-track trails, fire roads, and about one mile of pavement. The total elevation gain is around 600 feet. The final two miles of the course are noted as being particularly tough. The event has a time limit of 5 hours. Much of the trail is shaded.
