The Milwaukee Marathon is an annual marathon, and a Boston Marathon qualifying race, for runners of all ages and abilities that courses through downtown Milwaukee each spring. It offers three race distances: a full marathon (26.2 miles), a half marathon (13.1 miles), and a 5k (3.1 miles). Seeing the potential to turn the Milwaukee Marathon into a world-class event, Rugged Races, a Boston-based race production company with marathon experience that organizes 90 races annually, bought the Milwaukee Marathon in August 2018 and immediately started to overhaul the event.

dbo:abstract
  • The Milwaukee Marathon is an annual marathon, and a Boston Marathon qualifying race, for runners of all ages and abilities that courses through downtown Milwaukee each spring. It offers three race distances: a full marathon (26.2 miles), a half marathon (13.1 miles), and a 5k (3.1 miles). The inaugural event, branded the PNC Milwaukee Running Festival, was held on November 1st, 2015 and saw great success, attracting 3,700 participants. However, the course was mismeasured two years in a row in 2016 and 2017, with 2016’s being too long and 2017’s too short. The resulting backlash from runners and city officials threw the future of the race into question. Seeing the potential to turn the Milwaukee Marathon into a world-class event, Rugged Races, a Boston-based race production company with marathon experience that organizes 90 races annually, bought the Milwaukee Marathon in August 2018 and immediately started to overhaul the event.
