Set for its 24th annual running along the canal trails and roads of this small village just north of Albuquerque that’s home to just shy of 9,000 souls, the Corrales Ditch Run Half Marathon (formerly known as the Corrida de Corrales Half Marathon) unfolds along a combination of terrain like dirt acequias, ditch banks and paved roads.
The race, a small one that saw just over 200 finishers in all three races combined last year, is organized by the Kiwanis Club of Corrales to benefit its annual children’s summer camp held in nearby Vanderwagon, N.M., each June.
