RACE UPDATE 2026!
☯️The Taskinas Creek Half Marathon will be Sunday, June 7, 2026 at York River State Park, Williamsburg, VA☯️
👉I have changed the format for 2026. Please see below (copied from the registration page)
👉The race will be a "no frills" event. I am referring to it as a “Hike-a-Half” race and the goal is to be inclusive, rather than competitive. This new twist allows me to keep entry fees low, but still offer a great, memorable event! I am considering other "Hike-a-Half" events during the year if this race goes well, so let's make that happen!
What we will still have in 2026:
☑️Official results including overall and age groups posted on Ultrasignup
☑️Finisher Medal
☑️PR Awards*
☑️Free parking
☑️Aid stations and finish line snacks
☑️A challenging well marked course!
What is not included in my registration fee this year?
❌T-SHIRTS- These must be added at checkout if you want one!
❌Overall and Age Group awards
❌Lunch at the finish, we will just have light food, mainly fruit
*If you beat your previous time on the course (half marathon version) you receive a special PR coaster award!
FAQ:
❓Do I have to hike? I would prefer to run.
NO! You are competing as much or as little as you want. You are also competing with yourself! It is a tough course and just finishing is a victory. If you are speedy and you want to challenge yourself- go for it!
❓Why are you doing this race as "no frills"?
Costs continue to rise. I want to keep events affordable. Not everyone wants a T-shirt and a medal- it is a personal choice.
❓Will everyone get a finisher medal?
I will have finisher medals available for all. If you prefer not to grab one, you can skip it!
❓May I buy a T-shirt on race day?
Not necessarily. These will be limited, but I will have previous year's T-shirts for sale as well. The T-shirt dealine is May 17th and after this date I will put inventory on the registration page and when they are gone they are gone! T-shirts will be unisex sizes only. You CAN go back into your registration later and add a T-shirt if you are not sure yet.
❓How much is registration?
$40 now until Feb. 28th
$45 March 1st-April 30th
$50 May 1st until June 3rd (closes June 3rd, no race ay registration)
❓Any swag?
I will have some previous year's swag that you can grab at the finish if you want it. First finishers will have the first crack at these items!
