The Energy City Half Marathon begins at Fasken Oil and Ranch, northwest of downtown Midland, and starts the course by taking runners off-road for the first mile before running through a residential neighborhood and heading south. After making a loop through another residential neighborhood just north of downtown Midland, runners then retrace their path along Oriole Drive and continue along another loop weaving through another residential neighborhood.
After completing the second loop, it’s less than a mile to the finish line, back to where runners started. Raffles, snacks, and prizes await runners at the finish line.
