About the Urban Bourbon Half Marathon
The Louisville Sports Commission produces Urban Bourbon as both a competitive half and a city experience. The 21-and-older requirement reflects a post-race program built around local food, music and bourbon sampling.
Course
Louisville streets shape this 13.1-mile road course before it returns downtown for the finish. Urban turns and small grade changes make attention to tangents and even effort useful.
Race-day weather
Mid-October in Louisville often offers cool morning conditions, but humidity and warmer sun are possible. Rain can make painted road markings and downtown turns slick.
