The St. Michaels Half Marathon is an annual half marathon road race. The race is competed at the amateur level.[3] Although the event does not have a title sponsor, Nationwide is considered the primary sponsor.[4] The race is organized by the St. Michaels Running Festival, which also hosts 10 km and 5 km runs.[5] The Festival attracted over 1,500 runners in its opening year, and approximately 3,000 in its second edition.[6]
