We’re excited to announce the 11th Annual South Shore Half Marathon and 5K on November 2 at beautiful Wompatuck State Park in Hingham, MA! Known for being one of the most scenic and popular half marathons and 5K’s in Massachusetts, and considering we’re offering the lowest early bird pricing ever, you won’t want to miss out!
