Event Type : Marathon

Join us May 5, 2024, for a great running experience through the streets of Lincoln, Nebraska.  Our event offers something for runners of all ages and abilities, from elite runners to everyday athletes looking to accomplish a fitness goal.

The Lincoln Half Marathon will be the Road Runners Club of America State of Nebraska Half Marathon Championship for 2024!

Brookings, South Dakota, hosts the 25th oldest marathon in the US, 3rd oldest among those run every year since inception. Though the race has evolved since 1970, the course still includes historic neighborhoods, beautiful parks, bike paths, and tree-lined streets. ​Along the way, runners are supported by hundreds of wonderful volunteers, and opportunities abound for family and friends to cheer. 

The Nebraska State Fair Marathon Race Series (Marathon, Marathon Relay, Half Marathon, 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run) begins and ends on the Nebraska State Fairgrounds with the after party celebration right amidst the festivities of the fair.  The course is known for being one of the “fastest and flattest” in the nation.  Participants run on city streets, on the hike & bike trail, through beautiful parks and winding through tree-lined residential neighborhoods.  Entry into the Nebraska State Fair is included in your registration along with a long-sleeve tech shirt and custom finisher medal.  This is a Boston Qualifying course #NE18005GM. 

**Registration beings on 02/02/2024 with a 4-day Groundhog Day Sale to celebrate our 10 years!!**
