The Historic Drawbridge Running Festival will take place on Saturday, October 31st, 2026. The half will navigate from Tilghman Island, straight up Route 33, and to St Michaels, making one of the only true turns of the race in to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. That's a 13.1 mile STRAIGHT RUN with little to no elevation or turns.

The Full marathon will follow the same course, but turn right on Bozman-Neavitt Rd (MD Route 579) and travel through tiny Bozman, and turn around right before Neavitt, before you turn around and return to St Michaels, rejoining the marathon course around mile 24. 

Our 5k event, starting at 830am, will start and finish from the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum!!! The course will be 1.55 out and back on the same course as the Full and Half. 

ALL LONG COURSES ARE USATF CERTIFIED COURSES!!!    Marathon (MD24007NP)   - Half Marathon (MD24004NP)
