Course Description

The Half-Marathon and 5k will Start & Finish in the Reynolds Landing Parking lot adjacent to Breckenridge Brewery, with an out-and-back course along the Mary Carter Greenway Trail (see below for course map). The trail is mostly flat (and scenic!) as it winds north, and then back south along the Platte River. Water stations will be available every 2-2.5 miles. Carrying your own water bottle or hydration pack is recommended. You may refill either at our aid stations. Toilets will be available at several locations throughout the course as well as at the start and finish line.
