Lincoln is gearing up for one of its most beloved community traditions: the 13th annual Good Life Halfsy half marathon. The popular race is bringing runners together from across the region, with several Lincoln streets set to close this weekend to make way for the event.

Now in its thirteenth year, the Good Life Halfsy has become a fixture on Lincoln’s community calendar, drawing participants who take to the city’s streets for a 13.1-mile course that winds through the heart of the capital city. The race is a celebration of fitness, community spirit, and the good life that Lincoln has to offer.

Street closures are planned throughout the city to ensure a safe and smooth course for runners and volunteers alike. Residents and drivers are encouraged to plan alternate routes during the event window, as several key Lincoln streets will be temporarily closed to accommodate the race.

The Halfsy has grown year after year into a signature Lincoln event, bringing together runners of all experience levels — from first-timers tackling a half marathon distance for the very first time to seasoned athletes chasing personal records. The event also draws spectators who line the streets to cheer on friends, family, and strangers alike, turning the race into a citywide celebration.

Whether you’re lacing up your shoes or cheering from the sidelines, the 13th annual Good Life Halfsy is a reminder of what makes Lincoln such a vibrant and active community. Here’s to another great year on the course!
