Miami, FL
Date

Event
Details
One of several half marathon events that are part of the "13.1
Marathon"-themed races staged across the United States -- the
others are in Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta and Chicago -- the 13.1 Marathon
Miami offers runners a mostly fast and flat race course through the
streets of Miami Beach, with ample views of the
ocean waves crashing against the shore and the art and architecture of
the city's world-famous South Beach, from the starting line near the
Miami Beach Convention Center.
The race is open to walkers as well as runners, provided that they can
complete the race's 13.1 miles within the three and a half-hour time
limit. After this time, the course will be re-opened to automobile
traffic and participants will be urged to use the greatest caution if
they choose to continue after the time allotted. Organizers add that
they expect an estimated 5,000 runners to come out and compete and
participate in the springtime running of the 13.1 Marathon
Miami Beach, as well as plenty of volunteers and spectators lining the
streets to cheer the runners on.
