Race Info
The Lakefront Marathon Half runs 13.1 miles from the Baird Center on West Wisconsin Avenue through downtown Milwaukee, north along the lakefront past Lake Park on the Upper East Side, and back south. It crosses the Daniel W. Hoan Memorial Bridge, turns around south of the harbor, and crosses the bridge again on the way back to the finish at Urban Park on the lakefront. The two bridge climbs are the only significant hills on an otherwise flat course. USATF-certified.
