About

The Rock the Parkway Half Marathon and 5K takes place in Kansas City, Missouri, in early April, along Ward Parkway. Both the start and finish are at the Burns & McDonnell headquarters. The half marathon (13.1 miles) goes off first at 7:30 AM, followed by the 5K (3.1 miles) at 7:45 AM, both on roads. A parkway course is typically a good place to settle into a steady rhythm, and the early start helps avoid traffic as well as later-morning warmth. First-timers moving up from the 5K to the half marathon can use the event as a goal for a spring training block.
