Wisconsin Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, moderate wind
A cool 42°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Moderate winds around 13mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. High humidity (84%) will make it harder to cool down through sweat — increase fluid intake accordingly.

Race Info
The Wisconsin Marathon takes place in Kenosha, Wisconsin, along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Marathon and half marathon runners start and finish near the Kenosha Public Museum and Civil War Museum, at the corner of 1st Avenue and 54th Street, with the marathon run as a double loop and the half marathon a single loop through downtown and lakefront neighborhoods. The race moved from its longtime early-May date to late April, running April 25, 2026, with the 2027 edition set for April 24. Both the marathon (USATF WI24030DM) and half marathon (WI24029DM) are USATF-certified, Boston Marathon-qualifying courses.
