About the Surfers Point Marathon

This Ventura full is a distinct race in a family of events using the Rincon coast. Its separate date and entry matter, even though runners may recognize the venue and course style from Shoreline Marathon.

Course

Marathoners complete three loops on a beachfront bike path near Solimar Beach. The low-relief profile favors steady splits, while turnarounds, path width and coastal wind shape the race more than climbing.

Race-day weather

September on the Ventura coast often begins cool or overcast before the sun breaks through. Ocean breeze can help with heat but may create a headwind on exposed sections of each loop.
