THE COURSE

» Half Marathon runners complete this loop 4 times. View 13.1m map animation HERE.

5K and 10K Runners will START on Lookout Drive about 1/10th of a mile from the Lincoln Park Fountain and begin running north. You remain in a marked runner’s lane located on the left side of the drive. After a ½ mile you turn right onto a bridge/ramp that takes you to a 1.8-mile loop mostly on paths before returning to this point. You cross Lakeview Drive and go onto a small, paved path. Follow the signs running to your left and around the park lake. Once you are completely around the lake you follow the paved path and signs to your left and re-enter Lakeview Drive. Continue in the runner’s lane until you return to the starting point. Follow the signs and directions of volunteers to go around the Finish Line arche if you are running the 10K so that you can complete a second loop or to go through the Finish Line arche if you are running the 5K.»

Half Marathon Runners START and FINISH at the same point, next to the water fountain. You run the same course as described above except for an additional .2-mile loop on the west side. You run 3.27 miles for every loop.

SIGNS and VOLUNTEERS will be placed at all turns.

Please note: You must slightly veer off the running lane at the last turn before reaching the finish line to go through the LOOP arche. You must do this each time that you are completing a loop. When you are finishing, stay on the running lane, turning left, and finish strong through the double FINISH LINE ARCHES. A volunteer and signage will be on-site to guide you.
