The Start & Finish location address for the Marathon/Half Marathon:
Fort Lauderdale Beach Park
1100 Seabreeze Blvd
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316
The Start:
Firstly, Masks are optional in the Start Corral. Please do whatever is comfortable for you. The Start for the Marathon & Half Marathon events will feature a combined Mass Start of both distances. There will be 5 waves within the Mass to spread people out a bit along the early part of the course. Faster runners are encouraged to make your way to the Front of the Corral. Slower runners & walkers will start towards the back. Pace per Mile signs will be set up throughout the Start area. Please line up near a sign that is applicable to your Pace. All awards other than Overall Awards will be based on Chip/Net time, so it does not matter where you start within the Mass. Overall Awards will be based on Gun time, so faster runners should position near the Start Line towards the front of the pack.
If you are uncomfortable starting within the mass amongst people, no problem. You do have the option to wait until most people have left the Start Corral. But please do not wait too long to start as the 6K will be starting after the Marathon & Half Marathon.
Course Hours:
Both the Full and Half Marathon Courses will be open for 6 hours, from 5:45 am – 12:00 pm. At 12:00 pm, remaining runners/walkers can continue via the sidewalks. Our Finish Line will be operational until 1:30 pm.
We ask that all participants begin to line up in the Start Corral by 5:20 am. The Start will be organized based on expected Finishing Time and Pace/Mile.
Runners are asked to find their place in the Line according to their finishing time. There will be signs in the corral marking the times, i.e. 3:00 hrs., 3:15, hrs., 3:30hrs, etc.
