The entire Door County Half Marathon is run on a closed, USATF-certified road course
through one of the midwest's most revered destinations - Peninsula State Park. The race begins and ends just a few strides from Nicolet Bay Beach, where the Runners' Concourse is located.

Seven aid stations will be located along the half marathon course with water and gatoraide. Some of the aid stations will be used more than once during the half marathon or will be used for both running events. Half marathoners will have access to aid stations eight times throughout the run. Each aid station will have medical personnel and volunteers. Water and energy drinks will be available at all locations and Gu will be available at Aid Station E (just before mile marker 8). Please see the course map for details.

Restrooms are located near the Eagle Bluff Lighthouse and near Tennison Bay (Miles 2 and 11 on the half marathon course and Mile 1 on the 5K). All other Aid Stations will have portapotties located just before the aid station.
