About the Cedarburg Half Marathon

The race starts and finishes at a high school on a chip-timed, certified course. Pace teams run the half marathon distance, so you can lock onto a group from the gun. There is also a rucking division for the half, where participants carry weighted packs and compete in their own category alongside the open field.

Post-race, there are pancakes at the finish. The event benefits a camp program for children with heart disease, so the crowd around the finish area tends to feel genuinely invested.

Common Questions About the Cedarburg Half Marathon

Will I finish last at the Cedarburg Half Marathon?

Almost certainly not. Half the 13.1 Miles field finished slower than 2:01:13, and the last recorded finisher came in around 4:02:19, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Cedarburg Half Marathon a good first 13.1 Miles?

A field of 470 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 13.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Cedarburg Half Marathon?

The 13.1 Miles winner ran 1:07:40 while the median finisher took 2:01:13. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
