New Belgium Asheville Marathon & Half
Lo esencial
La New Belgium Asheville Marathon & Half tiene sus raíces a principios de los años 2010 y se ha convertido en una de las carreras de ruta de primavera más queridas del Sureste. Patrocinada por New Belgium Brewing, el evento celebra la comunidad, la cultura cervecera artesanal y la recreación al aire libre que caracterizan a Asheville. La edición 2027 marca el 15 aniversario de la carrera. A través de los años, ha atraído tanto a corredores competitivos que buscan tiempos clasificatorios para Boston como a participantes recreativos que desean experimentar el paisaje de la región y la energía del día de la carrera. El recorrido reúne lo mejor de Asheville y sus alrededores: una mezcla de calles del centro histórico, tramos pintorescos a lo largo del río French Broad, y caminos ondulantes rodeados de árboles que evocan las colinas de la cordillera Blue Ridge. Los corredores pasan por sitios notables y vecindarios, disfrutan de música en vivo y apoyo local a lo largo de la ruta, y generalmente terminan en un escenario similar a un parque con servicios de festival, opciones de cerveza artesanal y comida de vendedores locales. La carrera se corre en un recorrido certificado por USATF y clasificatorio para Boston, y está organizada para ser amigable con los espectadores y acogedora para todos los ritmos, con una fuerte presencia de voluntarios y una atmósfera energética y centrada en la comunidad.
