Overview
Course Description
Runners will start the half marathon at the Whitewater Aquatic Center on West Walworth Avenue, in front of the campus of Whitewater High School.
From there, the race follows roughly a clockwise loop around town, running through parts of Whitewater Nature Preserve and later through Trippe Lake Park before heading back to the high school, where you’ll cross the finish line on the running track.
All of the half marathon’s 13.1 miles are run on paved surfaces, and the hills are mostly small — the race hits a peak elevation of just over 880 feet just after the start, and hits its lowest point of just below 800 feet right after the mile 4 marker.
