D&L Heritage Half Marathon

The USATF-certified course starts on Main Street in downtown Bethlehem and heads south to Sand Island, picking up the D&L Trail at about 0.6 miles. From there it follows the trail and the Lehigh River all the way to the finish at Scott Park in Easton.

Most of the route has a very gentle downhill grade, and the start is at 7:30 a.m.

The D&L Heritage Half has been a November fixture for more than a decade, and it now runs as part of D&L RaceFest alongside the St. Luke's D&L Marathon and a marathon relay. The Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor organizes it, and entries help maintain the D&L Trail.

The run and walk divisions share one field limit across all half-marathon entries, so spots can run out before race day. Runners must be at least 14.
