This is one of the greenest, most scenic, tasty, and sensational half-marathons around! We keep it small, convivial, and very special. From a pre-race local organic foods dinner to a post-race blueberry-themed brunch, it's a good time. Oh yeah, and there's the race, where everyone wins. We don't believe in losers. You put in the effort, you receive a hand-made porcelain medallion. Everyone. Yes, we have hand-made pottery mugs for winning categories, but the goal is for everyone to have a great time, knowing they are supporting the cause of sending kids to a wonderful ecologically-minded summer camp where they can grow and learn together. Join us!

Course Info:

Discover the REAL Maine. The Blueberry Cove 13.1 is loaded with country roads, gentle hills, and lots of ocean views. The course is a ½ marathon, 13.1 miles. It is a challenging circumnavigation of the lower St. George peninsula, with the start and finish lines at Blueberry Cove Camp off Harts Neck Road in Tenants Harbor, ME.

The first half of the route is a rural back road, with quiet coves, gentle hills, and few houses, while the second half comes alive with much to see. Enjoy the beauty of Maine’s largest fishing fleet once you reach Port Clyde, also home of the Monhegan Boat Line ferries. Travel the same route Forest Gump traveled upon reaching the Marshall Point Light House, then head along Drift Inn Beach, the Atlantic Ocean, and back to Blueberry Cove for a scrumptious Maine blueberry brunch.
