Wicomico Recreation, Parks & Tourism is bringing back the Hidden Treasures Half Marathon & 5K for its third year.

In addition to a great time, runners will receive a participation award, event goodie bag and a dry-tech event shirt (while supplies last). Cash prizes will be presented to the top 3 male and female finishers of the Half Marathon, and other medals and door prizes will be awarded for each age group.

The celebration will include live entertainment, a “Taste of Salisbury” provided by the Locally Owned Restaurant Association (LORA) and adult beverages. All race participants will receive food and drink while guests and spectators will be able to purchase food and drinks from on-site vendors.
