The Publix Fort Lauderdale A1A Marathon & Half Marathon Presented by Colavita is one of Florida’s premier coastal races, offering runners miles of unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean. Set along the iconic A1A highway, the course winds past sandy beaches and swaying palm trees, with the ocean never far from sight. Participants can choose from the full marathon, half marathon, 6K, or kids’ race, making it a weekend that welcomes athletes of all ages. On race day, live bands and spirited cheer squads line the route, creating a festive atmosphere that keeps energy high from start to finish. Every finisher is rewarded with a signature, award-winning medal and invited to a post-race beach party that celebrates South Florida style—sun, music, food, and ocean breezes. With its flat, fast profile and stunning scenery, this event is as much a celebration as it is a race.
