The fourth annual Wendell Foster Half Marathon will take place Nov. 12, and for the first time there will also be a 5k race.
Registration for both races opens Tuesday. Cost for the 5k is $30 for adults and $20 for children. The half marathon is $60 for those who register before April 4, with a discount for the first 100 who register.
The 13.1-mile half marathon and 3.1-mile 5k will be fully supported, including some full and partial road closures. The race will start and finish on the riverfront by Smothers Park.
Water stations will be conveniently placed along the course and the races will be professionally timed. Finisher medals will be given to those that complete the course. Prize money will be awarded to the top competitors in both the half marathon and 5k distances.
