RUN THE SUNSHINE CITY
The St. Pete Marathon arrives 2027. A world-class course. A local movement. Built by the community, for the community.
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.
THE COURSE: A 26.2 MILE MASTERPIECE
Starting at the most beautiful park alongside the Gulf, athletes begin a life-transforming journey through a pre-dawn "Sunrise Symphony" along the historic waterfront and through a tunnel of holiday lights. The route transitions into a shaded "Green Cathedral" along a Hall of Fame Trail, providing a critical thermal reset for the middle miles. Runners then navigate a high-energy gauntlet through the murals and local shops of the Warehouse Arts and EDGE Districts before a legendary finish over the water at the St. Pete Pier. This USATF-certified layout is strategically engineered to be a flat, fast sanctuary for those chasing a lifetime personal record.
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 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.
