Big Lake Half Marathon

 HOME » SPECIAL EVENTS » BIG LAKE HALF MARATHON You Are Here

Participate or just come and enjoy the annual Big Lake Half Marathon alongside Lake Winnipesaukee in Alton. The race begins at 9:00am at Letter S road in Alton. The runners depart on a 13.1 mile scenic run which offers views of Lake Winnipesaukee and the surrounding mountains.  Thanks to traffic control, plenty of medical aid, as well as lead and sag vehicles, you can run the course feeling safe and with the knowledge that you can drop out at any time if you need to. So how much does it cost to participate? Just $35 before April 6th and $40 after. Participation will be limited to 1500 runners and there are already hundreds of people entered in the race, so hurry up and register now!

The Big Lake Battle

The volunteers who will be working the water stops will be engaged in a competition of their own, called the Big Lake Battle, a battle that is to the participants benefit. Each water stop will be competing for cash and prizes that can only be won by coming up with the most creative and imaginative way to serve up water!

Big Lake Bash

Thanks to the gracious support of various sponsors, all runners are invited to a big feast and bash.  Alton Bay will come alive with food and a party that features the music of Paul Warnick, who will be performing live on the bandstand.
