Course

Half Marathon Course (Click to see the Marathon course in motion)

Half marathon runners will start their race heading west from the Richard A. Carlucci Recreation and Aquatic Center. The first 3 miles will run on paved county and neighborhood roads before hitting Historic US 40. Runners/Walkers will then spend about 2 miles on US 40, running through downtown Plainfield. Mile 9 will bring racers through Franklin Park, then racers will cross an iron bridge where they will enter the paved Vandalia Trail. The tree lined Vandalia Trail will bring shade, a stroll past a pond, then run through a tunnel bridge below US 40. Racers will exit the Vandalia Trail by crossing another historic iron bridge and hit road again. After hitting the Plainfield Middle School, the half marathoners will leave the marathoners. Half marathoners will turn back towards Friendship Gardens Park, pass the waterfall feature to cross the iron bridge once again and enter the Vandalia Trail. The last mile plus will keep you on the beautiful shady Vandalia Trail heading back to the Richard A. Carlucci Recreation and Aquatic Center.
