Can you say Rocktoberfest?
What happens when you plan a Rockfest Party and a Half Marathon race breaks out! Oh there’s more.. A full marathon is now offered and we believe this will be THE COURSE to qualify on for Boston..- Yes – It’s flat, Yes, its Scenic with a capital S and you won’t want to miss the after-race partee! ! !
Join us in Hampton, NH, in 2011!
The Smuttynose Rockfest will include two races, a half marathon and a full marathon. The half marathon will travel on a course almost identical to 2010. The full marathon will do one loop of the half marathon, then branch off at about mile 11.5 and go further into Hampton and North Hampton. The second loop of the marathon will contain 3-4 new miles of new course, then 8 miles or so of the first loop. (note the race course may change slightly due to traffic issues, but should be 90% the same as 2010)
As of right now, the elevation guide we have shows this to be the flattest course in New England for a Marathon, and half marathon. The course will be certified and a Boston Qualifier with a start mat for both races..
The course is already certified and is a Boston Qualifier for the 2013 race.
