HALF MARATHON COURSE

From the start head down Bridge St., (beware of the cobblestones), toward Patton St., turn right onto the wide side walk on north bound MLK Bridge. After crossing the bridge take a Right remaining on the wide sidewalk. Before reaching Davenport Gas Company, take a Right and then a Left onto the Riverwalk. Continue down stream and enjoy 4 flat scenic miles as you approach Dan Daniel Park. You will pass the 2 mile marker just before the River Park Dr. trailhead at Dan Daniel Park. Continue on the Riverwalk making no turns until you arrive at the large Rugby field where you will take a Left. Continue around the field until you reach the second yellow gate that enters the Anglers Park parking lot. Cross the parking lot and pick up the Riverwalk trail just past the bathrooms. This 1.5 mile fully paved trail is a scenic yet hilly section that runs alongside our beautiful, world class Anglers Ridge Mountain Bike Trail System. Follow the paved Riverwalk path the entire way until you reach Stinson Dr. At the intersection which will be closed to traffic, you will cross Stinson and continue Left onto Slayton Ave. You will travel approximately .25 mile before turning around and heading back toward the intersection where you will rejoin the Riverwalk trail on your left and head toward your turnaround point at the Airport trailhead parking lot. At which point you will retrace your steps, with the exception of the Slayton Ave. spur, and head back to the finish. The elevation gain on this course is approximately 474 feet.
