How fast is it?

Slower than most Wisconsin half marathons

The fastest quarter of the 2025 half marathon field finished under 1:58:02, against 1:53:57 in a typical Wisconsin half marathon, so times here run 4 percent slower.

  • 10K: About average for Wisconsin 10Ks. The fastest quarter of the 2024 10K field finished under 53:17, against 53:12 in a typical Wisconsin 10K, so times here are about average.

Compares the fastest quarter of each field, so walkers and first-timers do not skew it. It reflects the course and the field together: a flat course, cool weather, or a competitive crowd all make times faster.

Typical race-day weather

Around April 24 the day usually runs from 39°F at dawn to 58°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 37% of days. Cold snaps dip to 30°F and hot years reach 72°F.

Based on 75 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
