About the Kansas City Half Marathon

Kansas City's flagship road-racing weekend scores the half as its own event, even though its field shares a 7 a.m. start with the marathon.

Course

The urban route highlights the World War I Museum, Nelson-Atkins, Union Station, Country Club Plaza and other landmarks across rolling city streets.

Race-day weather

October mornings are often cool and favorable, but Kansas City wind and the route's hills can complicate an otherwise fast-weather day.
