Over 20,000 runners descend on the Virginia Beach oceanfront for this 13.1-mile race. Bands along the race course help to motivate runners to cross the finish line! Participants compete for the largest half marathon prize purse in the United States. With a course that’s flat, fast, and fun, the Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon has become a “must run” event for thousands of racers. A post-race concert with a national recording act on the 5th Street Main Stage tops off the fun-filled day! There is an entry fee for the race and the post-race concert is a ticketed event.
