Runners follow a loop course for the Myrtle Beach Mini Marathon, which starts at Pavilion Park and finishes along the water on the new Myrtle Beach Boardwalk near Plyler Park. In between, the course unfolds along long straightaway stretches along Grissom Parkway and Ocean Avenue along the beach, taking runners past the Broadway at the Beach amusement park and entertainment district and along North Ocean Boulevard.

Note: The course map above provides the approximate route for the race. Though every effort has been made to ensure its accuracy, changes are sometimes made to race routes due to weather conditions, road closures or other circumstances that can require a course to be changed.

The map looks incorrect in that it looks like you run past the finish (9th Ave) on Ocean Blvd, and then down past 4th Street, and then turn around on Ocean Blvd and finish back at 9th Ave area. But the wording indicates that we leave Ocean Blvd and then run along the boardwalk to the finish at 9th Ave. That is the way we ran it before (finish along the boardwalk), but the map does not show the turn on the boardwalk (which is shown on the map when you zoom in). Maybe someone should change the last few miles on the map to show the real turn onto the boardwalk, and not mix up the runners as shown on the map (which shows staying on Ocean Blvd).
