Wisconsin Running: Cheesehead Races and Lake Michigan Beauty
Running in Wisconsin offers a distinct Midwestern charm, combining large, well-organized city marathons with breathtaking scenic courses along the Great Lakes. The state’s premier running event is often considered the Madison Marathon. Held in the vibrant capital, the full and half marathon courses offer a comprehensive tour of the city, including its famous university campus and the scenic shores of Lake Mendota and Lake Monona. The event provides a challenging, yet rewarding, route with enthusiastic support from the local "Badger" community.
The Scenic Coast: Door County and Milwaukee
For runners prioritizing unforgettable scenery, the Door County Half Marathon is a major highlight. This race is set entirely within the stunning Peninsula State Park, offering a fully closed road course that winds along the bluffs of the Niagara Escarpment and provides dramatic views of Green Bay. Its challenging hills are more than compensated by the pristine natural beauty of this famous Wisconsin peninsula, making it a sought-after destination race for nature lovers.
Further south, the Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon is another essential fixture. Known for being fast and highly reliable for Boston Marathon qualifying times, the point-to-point course is flat and runs along the picturesque shores of Lake Michigan. Whether conquering the bridges of the Eau Claire Marathon (often cited as the Best Marathon in Wisconsin) or tackling the rugged terrain of ultra-challenges like the Kettle Moraine 100, the Badger State provides high-quality racing with a great mix of urban excitement and natural splendor.
