The out-and-back route starts and finishes on the North Dakota Capitol grounds and follows the Missouri River, with sections through historic Bismarck neighborhoods. It is relatively flat and fast. The full marathon, half marathon and 10K are USATF certified. This is not a closed course, with only limited traffic control, so you need to watch for traffic on open roads. Local businesses sponsor each water station and mile marker, and their staff compete for best-dressed awards.
