    THE EVENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON A SUNDAY THIS YEAR

    The Battle Creek Half Marathon and 5k is Battle Creek's first and only half marathon. Starting at the brewing facility for Territorial Brewing Company, participants will run to and through the grounds of the Field of Flight and experience air crafts and more while getting an up-close view of the festival grounds as they are running by. Runners will then continue on the beautiful streets and boulevards of Battle Creek for a fairly flat, scenic course.

    Please note, due to time constraints on ordering medals, shirts, and other various race day items, participation numbers will be capped once orders are placed. The event has sold out previously! We suggest registering early to get the best deals and guarantee your spot!
