About the race
The Des Moines Women’s Half Marathon, 10K, 5K + Team Relay is a weekend running event in Des Moines, Iowa. The signature schedule includes a Saturday evening 5K and Sunday morning races: a Half Marathon (13.1 miles), 10K, and a 3-person Team Relay (each member runs 4–5 miles of the half marathon course before exchanging). The course features downtown Des Moines’ skyline, a loop around Gray’s Lake, and a finish through the Arie den Boer Arboretum, described as flat and scenic.
The weekend fosters a hype-session, living room-dance party atmosphere with on-course entertainment, wine toast, and a celebratory 10-year swag piece. Location: 2400 George Flagg Pkwy, Des Moines. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
