The Inuagural Outer Banks Flying Pirate Half Marathon

Those folks who do such a good job of putting on our annual OBX MARATHON on Veteran's Day Weekend have decided to put on another great event in April to be called the "Flying Pirate Half Marathon" (it will be an annual event). The course will be the 1st half the OBX Full Marathon (which is held in November)--so runners will run through Southern Shores into Nags Head.

Runners can sign up now for this great event by visiting HERE. It's a great chance for runners who run the 1/2 marathon in November to see the beginning of the course, since their half of the marathon starts in Nags Head and ends in Manteo. This marathon will also be the USA Track & Field's Half Marathon Championship for North Carolina. Some come try your hand against those in the Championship runnings, or just come out and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the course.
