About the Publix Fort Lauderdale A1A Marathon
Fort Lauderdale A1A is a winter marathon for runners who want a flat course, South Florida weather, and long stretches near the beach. The race is useful for goal-time runners, but humidity still matters.
Course
The course starts downtown and finishes near the beach, with A1A and oceanfront sections doing much of the work. It is flat, but exposure, humidity, and early pacing still deserve respect.
Race-day weather
February in Fort Lauderdale can be mild by Florida standards, yet humidity and sun can turn the race warm quickly. Early hydration matters even on a cool morning.
