COURSE CHANGE
If you have run Surftown in the past, you will notice a couple of changes on the half marathon course. We have made these small changes to alleviate congestion and avoid local traffic.

The first change is at mile 6. Instead of passing by the finish line (and all the congestion), you will turn right on Winnepaug Road, left onto First Street and right onto Fisherman's Avenue (back on the traditional course).

The other change is at mile 10: From Westerly Road, right onto Everett Ave., left onto Niantic Ave. Continue onto Ocean view Hwy (back on traditional course).

Course limit is 3 hours.

Cold beer (one free per registered runner over 21 years) at Paddy's Beach Club, located next to Misquamicut. You must have a photo I.D. to get a beer, even if you're 50.

See you Sunday! Have a great run!
