2022 CHR's Steam Train Half Marathon:
Our annual CHR Steam Train Half Marathon will be held on Saturday, April 23, 2022, in person, starting at the Essex Steam Train and Riverboat located in Essex, Connecticut. It is the only half marathon in the U.S. that races against a steam train and attracts runners from all over the country. Proceeds from the event will benefit Community Health Resources (CHR), Connecticut’s most comprehensive behavioral healthcare agency, and two local nonprofits: The River Museum in Essex and the Deep River Fire Department. This event is a fun-filled family event that everyone can have the opportunity to participate in. While we will still be keeping safety in mind with tiered starting times, masks at starting corral, and online registration, we feel confident this event will be the best one yet.
