Zeitgeist Half Marathon
Welcome to the 20th annual Zeitgeist Half Marathon to be held Saturday, November 5, 2022. The race is open to walkers and runners. It starts and finishes in the Optimist Youth Sports Complex northwest of Boise. Start time is 10am.
Race Details
The loop course is on paved roads with 1,181 feet of elevation gain over three hills. We offer 6 aid stations with portable toilets available along the course. Finishers receive a long sleeve, embroidered, moisture-wicking T-shirt and a finisher medal.
Post-Race Party
We provide a nice post-race party with hot food, cold drinks, and a live band. While the menu has not been finalized, we expect to serve garden pasta, scalloped potatoes, mushroom soup and chicken tortilla soup, bagels and cream cheese, apple crisp with whipped cream, Dawson Taylor coffee, soft drinks, water, and micro-brewed beer. Please remember to bring your photo ID if you plan to drink beer.
Awards and Prizes
Awards are presented at the post-race party for Overall winners and Age Group winners (M/F—1st, 2nd, 3rd). We also have a great prize drawing with tickets drawn from all participants who finish the race.

Volunteers are welcome and appreciated. They receive a short sleeve T-shirt and are welcome to attend the post-race party after completing their tasks. Take a minute to fill out the Volunteer Registration Form.
