About the BurliMOT Half Marathon
The name comes from the route: Burlington to Minot, point to point along the Souris River valley. It is one of the Minot area's main road races, with a two-to-four person relay, a 5K, and a Friday evening mile filling out the September weekend.
Course
The 13.1 miles follow dedicated running and biking paths through the Souris Valley before finishing downtown at Citizens Alley. The path surface is smooth and the profile is friendly, with shuttles handling the point-to-point logistics from downtown to the start.
Race-day weather
Mid-September in northern North Dakota usually delivers crisp starts in the 40s or 50s and mild finishes. Wind through the open valley is the most likely complication on an otherwise comfortable racing morning.
