Course Map: Tuscaloosa Half Marathon

The Tuscaloosa Half Marathon begins and finishes at Tuscaloosa’s Government Plaza. The first three miles of the course take runners west toward the amphitheater, then east down Jack Warner Parkway and a gentle incline before encountering the biggest hills on the course before Helen Keller Boulevard. After continuing on Helen Keller Boulevard for about a mile, the course turns right onto the University of Alabama campus and takes runners through downtown Tuscaloosa. A steep decline down 7th Street while turning left to Queen City Avenue around mile 12 gives runners the last-minute momentum to push toward the finish line, back at the Government Plaza.
