Starting at Florida Gulf Coast University at a crisp 6:30 a.m, the Fort Myers Half Marathon is a flat as fast course (as all Florida races are), taking runners throughout the campus, along beachfronts, and aside Lake Como for a spectacularly designed event. This race is semi-competitive, with a 3.5-hour time limit for all half marathon participants. Fully stocked aid stations can be expected every two (2) miles of the course. Ideal for seasoned runners are complete beginners, this event has something suitable for everyone; not to mention it’s extremely flat; no need to worry about the ever-dreaded incline hills. As with most registrations, all participants will receive a shirt, finisher’s medal, free photos, free post-race snacks, and live reports for the spectators and supporters who want to follow along.
