Event Description
Join us for the 2016 Merco Credit Union Half Marathon & 5K on October 16, 2016, at 7:30 a.m. at the University of California, Merced. The Half Marathon features an all-pavement, flat loop course built for a PR. This event will be chip-timed; and all participants will receive a tech fabric t-shirt and a custom finisher's medal. On top of gigantic finisher medals, all runners compete for the best age-group awards around: locally designed entirely unique trophies! And, whether you're striving for a new PR or to finish a half marathon for the first time, your participation is going to help Merced County high school graduates across a finish line of their own. All net proceeds from this event will be used to create a scholarship fund for Merced County high school graduates who attend the University of California, Merced. The 5K start time is 7:40 a.m., and features finisher medals, age-group awards, tech fabric t-shirts, and is stroller and walker friendly.
Discounts available to University of California Students, Merced County high school students, and active military.
