Leading Ladies Half Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, big temp swing
Starting at 64°F, heat will be a factor from the gun — go out conservative and stay on top of hydration. Temps will climb significantly to 86°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

Race Info
The Half Marathon covers the second half of the marathon course, starting in Spearfish Canyon about a quarter mile north of Savoy. It follows the Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway downhill beside Spearfish Creek, past the 1912 hydro plant and Bridal Veil Falls, between tall limestone and shale walls. Where the canyon opens up the course turns onto Winterville Road and the city bike path and finishes in Spearfish City Park. The course drops about 1,290 feet from start to finish.
