Wineglass Half Marathon Registration/Entry Limits

The Wineglass Half Marathon online registration will close at either 1,500 runners or on September 22, 2011 (which ever comes first). If registration closes by reaching 1,500 runners, a waiting list will be maintained through the wineglassmarathon.com website. Please visit the website for details and to get onto the waiting list.

Buses from the Finish to the Start Line prior to the race are complimentary. Bus departures begin shortly after 5:30 am with the last departure at 7:00 am sharp! There will be separate buses designated to go to the full marathon and half marathon starting areas. They will take runners to their respective Start Line areas only. Please use the buses designated to the Half Marathon Start Line.

Runners' Expo

The Expo for the 31st Wineglass Marathon and 2nd Wineglass Half Marathon will begin on Friday afternoon (09/28) and go through Saturday (09/29). Location will be the Corning Community YMCA. Visit the Wineglass website for more details.

Benefit/Donation

A portion of each entry fee for the Wineglass Half Marathon will be donated to the Corning Community YMCA to further their Mission in providing programs and opportunities toward a Healthy and Active Lifestyle in the local community.

Additional Information

All Runners in the Half Marathon will receive a Wineglass Half Marathon long-sleeved high-tec shirt (Asics), Pleasant Valley NYS Brut Champagne with commemorative Wineglass Half Marathon logo and race date silk-screen, and commemorative Wineglass Half Marathon "wine glass". All finishers will be awarded a commemorative/unique Glass Medal from Hand's On Glass.

Post Race Party will be held in the park near the finish line with plenty of food (pizza, chicken soup, string cheese, bagels, cookies, applies, bananas) and drinks. Showers are available at the Corning Area YMCA in downtown Corning

Because our course is a point-to-point race the best option for runners traveling without a non-running driver is to park at the Finish area and take a bus to the Start in the morning. This eliminates the need to wait until the afternoon for buses to go back to the starting area to get your car.

Buses will be designated for the half marathon start line.
