About the Cleveland Half Marathon, 10k & 5k
The course runs through downtown Cleveland and out along a greenway, with aid stations spread across the route carrying water, Gatorade, and GU gels. The greenway section takes you through park pavilions and trail junctions, so there is some genuine variety in what you are looking at. The route feels like a city race that escapes into something quieter for a stretch, then comes back.
Packet pickup is the evening before at Terra Running Company on North Ocoee Street, with a backup option race morning at First Street Square, which is also where awards happen after the race. Parking is free throughout downtown, including street spots and public lots, so getting in is straightforward.
