Publix Florida Marathon Weekend Publix Marathon
February 9, 2025
Melbourne, FL, 32901, US
Located in Melbourne on Florida’s Space Coast, between Miami and Jacksonville, east of Orlando and Tampa, the Publix Florida Marathon & 1/2 Marathon makes for a perfect warm winter running destination for runners of all ages and levels. It is held a month after the Disney Marathon. Like a Rock-n-Roll marathon, our event includes up to 12 musical acts along the course of the half and full marathon and half a dozen on the routes of the Sunshine State Lager 10K & Florida Eye 5k.
It is a walker and headphones-friendly event with a 7 hour time limit on the Marathon course. Half Marathoners have 5 hours to complete the event.
A very scenic route awaits and includes four bridge crossings for the full and two for the half-marathon. The course twice takes marathoners to the beach side barrier island and back to the mainland before concluding at the riverfront Front Street Park in downtown Melbourne. The awards ceremony follows with a party featuring yet another live band.
Florida Marathon Weekend shirt sales have closed. Remaining shirts not pre-ordered will be available on a first come, first served basis at the merchandise area at Saturday's expo for $20 each payable only by cash, Venmo or PayPal.
