Starting on the New Haven Green, all courses are flat and fast. The half marathon & 20K courses wind past Yale University, East Rock Park, the New Haven Green, and through picturesque Westville neighborhood. To eliminate congestion, there are two 5K start lines to separate men and women. The Half Marathon/20K course passes the New Haven Green at Mile 7 offering large crowds and spectators!
