    The race takes place in Waukesha, known for its beautiful parks and lakes, which provide a picturesque backdrop during the run.

    About This Race

    With a BQ rate of just 6.5%, the DoLittle Marathon isn't exactly a guaranteed slot for Boston, but its rolling hills make for an interesting test of endurance. Set in Waukesha, WI, runners experience a course that undulates through scenic landscapes, offering views that can distract from the effort required. Keep an eye on your splits; the slight elevation changes can sneak up on you, especially in the latter half of the race.

    Race Strategy

    Focus on maintaining an even effort rather than a strict pace, especially on the hills. Conserve energy during the inclines and pick up the pace on the declines whenever possible to maximize your overall speed.
