Are you looking to take a running vacation this year? Come to Jamaica and participate in The Reggae Marathon. Whether you are a beginning runner or someone who races competitively every weekend, The Reggae Marathon has something for you. With three distances to choose from, the race can accommodate runners and walkers alike. It is also a stroller friendly event so even the youngest of Reggae fans can participate.
The course for the 10k, half marathon, and the marathon is flat and takes you along Norman Manley Blvd in Negril, Jamaica. Locals station their cars along the course and play Reggae music throughout. There is rarely a moment that you don’t hear Bob Marley. The marathon loops the half marathon course and all the races end on the beach at Long Bay Beach Park on the picturesque Seven Mile Beach. The last mile is designated as the Bob Marley mile where you will see lyrics from his songs lining the road. And last but certainly not least is the after party. There’s live music, food and drinks, a misting tent, and the ocean. The ocean creates the best backdrop for your Instagram photos!
Until December when we’ll see you on the beach!
