Details
The Fox Cities Marathon offers a point-to-point 13.1-mile course for
the half marathon, starting at nearby Neenah's Riverside Park and
ending at the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley Campus in Menasha.
Mostly fast and flat, this USATF-certified half features really only
one rise in elevation, a bridge overpass before the 11th mile. The half
follows the same course
as the full marathon until the ninth mile, where it splits off and
later rejoins the full course for the final 2 1/2 miles of the race.
