The Rock-n-River Half Marathon course will start on Viginia Street near the famed Reno arch and Harrah's Plaza. The route will travel south to First Street and then head west and connect with the Truckee River path system.
Once the athletes reach Booth Street, they will cross the bridge and turn onto Idlewild Drive and continue west on the river path through several city parks. The course will then travel down Mayberry Drive and continue west to the turnaround where runners will be greeted with live music before returning back to the finish line downtown. This course will be an out and back design with a slight uphill grade on the way out and a fast return back to the finish.
We will provide aid stations approximately every mile on the course, supplied with water and gatorade, food, and energy gel. The course will be well marked and we will have a full team of volunteers to support the athletes.
A course map and elevation profile will be available shortly on this website.
