Black Diamond Express Half Marathon & 5K

Get ready to hit the ground running at the Black Diamond Express Half Marathon & 5K! This event isn't just about personal achievements; it's a scenic sprint to support the Mendon Foundation's work with the Lehigh Valley Trail.

Kicking off at 8:00 AM for the half marathoners and 8:20 AM for our spirited 5K participants, we offer you not just a race, but an experience lined with refreshments, finisher medals, and the choice of a long-sleeved tee or a unique mug for early sign-ups. And with prizes that will get your heart racing - cash for top finishers and varied awards across age groups - you'll be sprinting for more than just the finish line. Don't forget, all this action takes place amidst the picturesque settings of the historic Lehigh Valley Trail. Get set to make your mark!
