Course & Travel Notes

Plan for typical October conditions in Nebraska with highs around 66°F and lows near 41°F, bringing layers you can adjust throughout the morning and day since sunrise won't occur until 7:25 AM. October typically sees rain on about a quarter of days, so pack a light rain jacket just in case. The Hickman venue sits at 1,250 feet elevation, which should not present significant acclimation concerns for most runners. Fly into Lincoln Airport (LNK), located just 17 miles from the race site, making for a straightforward drive to Shepherd's Run 2026.
