Red Island Marathon and Half Marathon

Red Island Marathon and Half Marathon is held on May 30, 2027, in Warwick, Rhode Island. Both distances start at 6:00 a.m.: the marathon (26.2 mi) and the half marathon (13.1 mi). No elevation gain is listed.

A six o'clock start means eating at three or four in the morning, which is the part of an early marathon most runners get wrong. Rehearse it: one long run in the last month started at race time, with the same breakfast at the same interval, will tell you whether your plan survives an alarm that early — far better to find out in training than at mile eighteen.
