Race Info

The Brew City Marathon, since its start in 2015, takes runners through Milwaukee with a course that begins and ends at McKinley Park. The predominantly flat route, ideal for Boston Marathon qualifiers, winds along the Oak Leaf Trail, showcasing the city's lakeshore and the Milwaukee River. With an elevation gain and loss of about 337 feet, all paved, it's perfect for those chasing personal bests.
