Runners follow an out-and-back course for the Aberdeen Bull Run Half Marathon, which starts and finishes near the YMCA headquarters on State Street and then proceeds along a clockwise route through this northeastern South Dakota city, and along the outskirts of town. The course takes runners across a pair of bridges over the James River before heading north back into the city, for the race finish just a couple of blocks from the start.
