Description

With four competitive races from 5 - 31 miles and a non-competitive 5K walkathon, we have something for everyone during a winter weekend on Florida's beautiful gulf coast, and so we invite athletes of all abilities to join us at the Clearwater Distance Classic.

With multiple options for virtual athletes, we encourage athletes anywhere in the world to participate at their own pace on their own course to earn their finisher medal.

In 2013 we were thrilled to relaunch our Clearwater Marathon, after a seven-year hiatus due to road construction on Gulf Boulevard. This will be the only marathon staged on Florida's west central coast next season and will use the same course as previous years. It is accurately measured, USATF certified #FL13013EBM, and therefore a Boston Qualifier.

We added the 50K Ultra in 2015 to provide our athletes a new challenge. The 50K Ultra uses our 26.2 marathon course, with a 2.4 mile out-and-back extension starting at mile 16.5. Entirely asphalt-paved, except for the bridges, the varied course ascends Clearwater Bridge with spectacular views of the Gulf, followed by palm-tree lined Clearwater Causeway, and barrier-island flat Sand Key. Gulf Boulevard leads our runners through beach neighborhoods towards peaceful Pinellas Trail, which takes you back to the finish line at Coachman Park.

Our Clearwater Halfathon and our Clearwater 5-Miler challenge athletes with multiple bridge ascents, but also reward them with spectacular views from each bridge's summit. Both courses are entirely within 1/4 mile of Clearwater Harbor and/or the Gulf of Mexico.

We are also staging our Clearwater 5K Walkathon, created for those folks who want to celebrate their healthy, active lifestyles while also encouraging those who made better health one of their New Year Resolutions. Our goal is to provide a circled date on everyone's new calendar to come together in the spirit of good health.
