Registration is open for the OCNJ Half Marathon races on Sunday, Sept. 22, 2024 and an early-registration discount is good through Sept. 15.
In addition to the 13.1-mile Half Marathon, the event includes a 10-mile non-competitive walk/run and a 5-kilometer race. Early registration gives participants a $10 discount for the Half Marathon and 10-mile event, and a $5 discount for the 5K.
Runners voted for the OCNJ Half Marathon as the Best in New Jersey in a poll released earlier this year. They cited a fast and flat course that showcases Ocean City’s spectacular beaches, boardwalk and coastline. The OCNJ Half Marathon also has developed a reputation as a friendly race – with the public encouraged to come out to cheer for runners and volunteer groups manning themed water stations.
“The Half Marathon has become a great fall tradition in Ocean City,” Mayor Jay Gillian said. “The runners and their families get to enjoy Ocean City at its best, and the race grows bigger and better every year.”
