DR Races sell out early - don't procrastinate!
Our Napa-to-Sonoma and Santa Barbara Wine Country Half Marathon races sell out early and earlier every year. We expect to sell out our new Healdsburg event as well, so we recommend that you make your commitment early, secure your lodging and start training. Or you could sign up on our registration page for our email list and we'll keep you informed about all our races, registration openings and other news and tips from our e-newsletter, The Grapevine.

Event Poster
Each year French artist Jean-Pierre Got creates a unique poster design for the Wine County Half Marathon. This years version features three runners on course, two of which are in costume, passing an admiring lady sipping wine on the veranda of one of the many wineries on course. Can you guess which winery? These posters are collectibles so make sure you purchase one at the event.
