THE RACE

COURSE

 

Except for a few slight elevations to give you a challenge, the course is basically flat. The runners doing the Half Marathon will run 6 km. along the northeastern coastline and then turn back at Barnacle Point and run 15 km to the finish line at beautiful Fort James Beach on the Caribbean Sea, where you can run right into the ocean! How is that, for a post-race cool down? The 10K and 5K runners will have a clear path to Fort James Beach. (see the map).
