The Old Capitol Mile is a unique road race distance at an unusual race time (Sunday afternoon) in a special location: downtown Iowa City in front of the Old Capitol. The race begins on historic Iowa Avenue in downtown Iowa City, runs past the University Of Iowa President's Residence along the way, and finishes in the heart of downtown. The event draws crowds ranging from kids competing in their first road race to elites competing for cash prizes, and everyone in between. Three different heats allow kids and family their own race, followed by the women's only heat and ending with the men. At the end of the day, there is a 1-block kids' sprint for the smallest competitors.

Of course, numerous opportunities abound in downtown Iowa City for post-race gatherings. We encourage you to join Corridor Running and our generous sponsors as we celebrate fall and the outdoors. Proceeds from the event are donated equally to Young Life of Iowa City and Iowa Most, which sends a medical team every year to Guatemala to perform cleft lip and cleft pallet repairs.
