About
Tacoma City Marathon / Half / Ghost / 5K / 10K fills the weekend of May 1-2, 2027 in Tacoma, Washington. Saturday holds the Ghost marathon and half marathon at 9:00 a.m. and the 10K and 5K at 8:00, then Sunday at 7:30 the marathon (26.2 miles), the marathon relay and the half marathon (13.1 miles) start. Sunday's point-to-point courses cross the Narrows Bridge and finish at Dune Peninsula Park, with views of Commencement Bay, Puget Sound and the Olympic and Cascade ranges, running through Point Defiance Park and over the Wilson Way Bridge along the waterfront.
Runners can take on several races across the two days if they want the challenge. The Sunday marathon is Boston qualifying, so it also stands as a straight time attempt: a 16-week build with a weekly long run, plus hill work for the bridges.
