(First Half of Marathon)

Runners will start together at the west intersection of Chauncey and Van Buren Streets in front of Ball Furniture on the northwest side of the Courthouse Square downtown.

Runners will go east on Van Buren, cross the Blue River and turn right onto Tower View Drive.

Just before the Mile-2 mark (aid #1 and #6), the course heads east on County Road 100S to Williams Drive, left on Business 30 and then takes a sharp right turn onto Paige Road.

Runners then angle left onto Raber Road (aid #2 and #5), then right onto 300 S. just after Mile-6 for a triangle loop on to Keiser Road and back to Raber Road (aid #3 and #4).

The course then heads back into town on Raber Road, turn left onto Swihart (aid #2 and #5), right onto Ohio Street, right again onto Business 30, then left onto Tower View (aid #1 and #6).

After a short distance on Tower View Drive, runners head west onto Hanna Street, passing Mile-12, and then right onto Whitley Street (aid #7) and then left onto Van Buren, left onto Chauncey and then left onto Market to the Half-marathon finish line on the south side of the Courthouse Square on Market Street in front of the Sheriff's office.

Full marathon runners will cross the timing pad at the half-way point to log their half-marathon split, then U-turn and pass (aid #8) before heading west out of town via Market Street and then onto Old Trail Road.

Rather than returning to town on Old Trail Road, marathoners turn left (aid #9 and #13) and then right onto Wolf Road near Mile-23.

Just before Mile-24, runners turn right on Business 30 (aid #14) with a view of the courthouse and only two miles to go before returning to Van Buren, right onto Chauncey, left onto Market to the finish line in front of the Sheriff's office. (see Half-marathon finish location above).
