THE RACE: A NEW ERA FOR ST. PETERSBURG
The Inaugural St. Pete Marathon is more than a race. It is a high-performance experience through the soul of the best city in America. On December 19, 2027, a new tradition is born when we run the streets of the Sunshine City. Conquer the prettiest coastal stretch in the country on a fast and flat course that brings a fresh energy to our local economy through world-class tourism. To ensure the highest standard of athletic excellence, course design is currently undergoing official USATF certification for Boston Marathon qualification status.
THE CLUB: THE HEARTBEAT OF THE MARATHON
The inaugural starting gun fires in 2027, but the movement is already in motion. The St. Pete Run Club is a coach-led collective serving as the official training ground and pulse of the marathon. From first-timers to elite competitors, we provide the professional guidance, structured VDOT training principles, and community support necessary to elevate our city's burgeoning running culture. Don't wait for race day to join the legacy. Start your journey today.
THE EXPERIENCE: A CATALYST FOR THE SUNSHINE CITY
This event is a city-wide celebration of longevity, excellence, and community grit. By drawing thousands of dedicated athletes and spectators to our shores, the St. Pete Marathon transforms the waterfront into an electric, high-energy arena. From our vibrant neighborhood cheer zones to a world-class finish line festival, we are uniting local culture, athletes, and partners to establish an institutional legacy that resonates long after the final finisher crosses the line.
