About the Hot Cider Hustle - Shorewood Half Marathon & 5K
The Hot Cider Hustle runs through Shorewood, a quiet residential village just north of downtown Milwaukee. The course has a neighborhood feel, with tree-lined streets and the kind of scenery that suits a fall morning. Both distances share the same general area, so the course stays close to the start throughout.
Hot cider, caramel apples, and mugs are waiting at the finish. It is a warm way to end a race on a cool autumn morning, and the post-race spread is a genuine draw.
