Massachusetts Half Marathon Calendar event dates in grey are delinquent dates not updated by the race organizer yet. We strive to have dates 1 year out for Massachusetts half marathons, but have no control of when they set, announce or update their dates.
The Massachusetts Half Marathon Calendar is a complete simplistic listing of Massachusetts half marathons. Currently the Massachusetts half marathon schedule has 2025 Massachusetts half marathons and 2026 Massachusetts half marathons as they roll in. Massachusetts half marathons 2025 & Massachusetts half marathons 2026 also identify trail half marathons and walker friendly half marathons by a (T) symbol and a (W) symbol. The (T) means it is a TRUE trail half marathon 21k (off road, switchbacks, etc) and a (W) means it is truly "official walker friendly" requiring the half marathon to allow a minimum of 18:32 mile pace, minimum 4 hours for participants to finish the 13.1 mile distance.
The Massachusetts half marathon calendar features a complete listing of Boston half marathons, Worcester half marathons, Springfield half marathons, Lowell half marathons, New Bedford half marathons, Cambridge half marathons, and many more 1/2 marathons in MA.
