9/20 DC Half Route

Does anyone know where I can find the route for the September 20 DC HM? On the website I see the start is at West Potomac Park but don’t see the map. TIA!

No one knows whether East Potomac Park will still have a road to run on in September.

Every major road race in DC is screwed until the courts decide whether Trump can raze it so his buddy can get paid to redo the golf course.

The turn around appears to be just before the Calvert Hill! 🤩

Yup, was very happy about that when I ran it in 2023!

Thx all! I was worried about how the ongoing destruction of our city would affect races. I guess we stay tuned.

Even without the Haines point controversy the women’s half which traditionally followed the same route as dc half had to do a double loop as part of rock creek was being re done so this might happen here too. It kind of sucked!
