The Kansas Half Marathon is new and improved for 2012 and both online registration and mail-in registration are now open! The USATF certified course, which starts and finishes at 9th & New Hampshire Streets, has been modified to improve the accuracy and experience for participants. The post race food, entertainment, technical shirts and finisher medals for half marathon finishers will also make this event an annual favorite.
In addition to the half marathon event, the Kansas Half Marathon also includes a 5K and 1K Kids Fun Run! The 5K will start at 7:45 a.m. at 9th & New Hampshire Streets, and will utilize portions of the half marathon course in and around downtown Lawrence. The 1K Kids Fun Run is a free event that is designed for kids 12 years old and younger and parents will still be required to register their child in the 1K Kids Fun Run.
Health Care Access Clinic is proud to present this event, the proceeds of which will support their mission to facilitate access to health services for residents of Douglas County. Through their new partnership with KC Running Company for the 2012 event and the addition of the Kansas Half Marathon to the Heartland 39.3 Series of area half marathons, they are expecting this year’s event to be the most popular to date!
Register online or mail in your registration for the Kansas Half Marathon and be a part of the rebirth of this great event!
