RaceRaves, the nation’s premier online race finder and reviews community for runners and endurance athletes, has announced the winners of its 2024 “Runners Choice: Best Half Marathons in the U.S.” poll. The top half marathon in each state was crowned based on nearly 20,000 votes from runners across the country along with finisher ratings and reviews on RaceRaves.com.The authoritative new guide will help novice and seasoned runners alike build their all-star half marathon wish list. 

Common themes among the winning events include exceptional production and race-day support, strong community involvement, and a half marathon course that showcases the distinctive beauty, charm and character of the local region.
 
Hosted annually on Veterans Day Weekend, Chickamauga is an “amazingly beautiful” tour of a hallowed and historic venue. Run entirely within the 9,000-acre Chickamauga & Chattanooga National Military Park, race day starts with a booming cannon shot that sends runners on their way along quiet wooded roads and peaceful paved trails. 

“The ‘Best Half Marathons in the U.S.’ initiative exemplifies our passion for the sport and our commitment to helping runners discover the best races across the country,” said RaceRaves Co-founder Mike Sohaskey. “We’re thrilled by the tremendous response from runners nationwide and congratulate the Chattanooga Track Club on this well-deserved accolade.”
