About the Escanaba Fall Classic Half Marathon
The course starts and finishes at Ludington Park, which sits along the water at Little Bay de Noc. The route is described as fast, and the park setting gives you open shoreline views for much of the way. There are options for longer and shorter distances, so the field tends to be a mix of paces and goals. Post-race, the park fills out with food and music.
