2020 Half Marathon Canceled
Hello Everyone, On March 15, 2020, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommended that all gatherings and events larger than 50 people be canceled for the next eight weeks. In accordance with this recommendation, we will be canceling the 2020 St. Luke’s Half Marathon, 5k, Youth Run and Family Fun Walk which is scheduled to take place over the weekend of April 25-26, 2020. With an event our size, we are simply unable to practice the proper safe social distancing to keep COVID-19 coronavirus at bay. All of this year’s registrants will receive a coupon code for our 2021 event once registration for that event is open. This coupon code will be good for 100% off your registration fee. Again, while we do not process refunds you WILL be able to race next year’s event for free. This applies to the half marathon and 5k as the youth run and…

Race Bandit Policy Adopted
The LVRR Board of Directors has adopted a Race Bandit Policy which is now in effect. A race bandit is any runner taking part in a race without the permission of the race directors, which can include but is not limited to joining the race field without registering, or running with another runner’s bib on. Lehigh Valley Road Runners has adopted the following policy in regards to runners banditing any and all of our events: Race bandits will be banned from all LVRR events for a period of one year. If caught wearing a bib that is not your own, both parties will be banned from all LVRR events for a period of one year. By turning a blind eye to this ongoing problem we are in effect condoning this behavior. For the past couple of years we have allowed bib transfers and race deferments for the St. Luke’s Half…
