Join the Festivities at the Healdsburg Half Marathon

Slip on your running shoes and get ready for the annual Healdsburg Half Marathon on October 9th! This popular race starts and ends in charming Downtown Healdsburg with the course taking you through the scenic landscape of Sonoma County. After you finish your 13-mile or 5K run, join in the festivities with live entertainment and a beer and wine tent to celebrate Octoberfest. Enjoy an exciting end to an exciting race!

Downtown Healdsburg offers a great atmosphere as you run through the streets lined with cheering spectators. As you cross the finish line, you'll be treated to live music and entertainment to help you power through your final steps. Each runner will also receive their very own wine stopper finisher's medal and commemorative beer or wine glass with the marathon logo. After you place the medal around your neck, head to the Octoberfest food and beer tent for a delicious taste of Sonoma County. There will be plenty of tasty hot food, and many of the finest wineries and breweries in the region will be on hand to pour their favorite drinks. 

Our wine country boutique hotel is perfectly located just five minutes from Downtown Healdsburg. Our comfortable rooms with Tuscan-style make an ideal home base during the marathon weekend. You can pick up your race packet at City Hall on October 8th, then wake up early to reach the starting line in just minutes when you stay with us.
