Thanks to all of the runners, volunteers, spectators, and sponsors
who made the 2008 Urban Wildland Half Marathon & 5K a great success!
Hope to see you all next year!

For
directions and information about
road construction
in the area of the start/finish line, visit our
Parking/Directions page.
Please allow extra travel time.
Improvements continue
to make the UWHM5K a greener race. Starting this
year, water and Powerade will be served in
biodegradable, compostable
cups
rather than plastic bottles,
at
the finish line. Biodegradable, compostable cups will be used at water stops again this year.
Also new this year is a
reusable runner bag.
The
revised
course map
for the
5K and the
USATF-certified half-marathon
is posted on the Course Info page.
