Swanzey Covered Bridges Half Marathon and Two Person Relay:  Elijah's Race

This year we are excited to celebrate our 11th annual Elijah's Race. Elijah started this race in 2005 to benefit the students of Monadnock  Regional High School . He was an elementary Physical Education teacher in  the district and a coach for the track team. He grew up in Swanzey and was an all-star athlete for MRHS. His life was cut short just days prior to  his 3rd annual Swanzey Covered Bridges ½ Marathon. Local community members and school booster members took over the race organization. His dream continues with having a race on Labor Day weekend that benefits the  students of his alma mater.

Run through four scenic covered bridges on your way to completing a 13.1 mile loop in Swanzey, NH.

First leg is 6 miles through 3 of the covered bridges and the 2nd leg continues the last 7.1 miles through the 4th covered bridge.  

Transportation will be provided to and from relay transition point.
