THE 6th ANNUAL ASHLAND HALF MARATHON &5MILER

The 6th annual Ashland Half Marathon is set for Saturday, October 28, 2017 beginning at 10 a.m. The races will start and finish at Marathon Park, the original start line location of the Boston Marathon from 1897 through 1923.

Ashland Sporting Association is excited to introduce a NEW race course featuring scenic rolling hills traversing Ashland town roads and a loop through the beautiful Hopkinton State Park during the peak fall foliage season. The Half Marathon and a new 5 Mile race will run together for the first five miles in a loop course through the residential Ashland neighborhoods. The 2017 race will feature a new 5 Mile race and a Half Marathon two-person team relay competition.

The Ashland Sporting Association believes in helping each other to make our community strong and build a sense of pride and togetherness. For the 3rd year in a row, the ASA is collaborating with the MetroWest YMCA to raise money for both non-profit groups who serve our community. Every dollar we raise in invested back in our youth, teens, adults, seniors, families…programs for everyone! Proceeds will be donated to the MetroWest YMCA to sustain and develop new middle school and high school youth programs in Ashland, Hopkinton and Holliston.
