Spring Half Marathon
The 2022 Spring Half Marathon will begin in downtown Wichita close to the banks for the Arkansas River. The race heads west through the campus of Friends University, then comes back east through historic the Delano neighborhood, down along the banks of the Arkansas River, through the scenic Riverside neighborhood. Don't forget to enjoy the River and our beautiful Riverfront Stadium as you finish at the starting line for a good ole' Midwest post-race party!
