The Jersey City Marathon & Half Marathon Marquee Experience at Newport

The Jersey City Marathon & Half Marathon Marquee Experience at Newport is held in Jersey City, New Jersey, on April 18, 2027. Both distances start at 7:00 a.m.: the marathon (26.2 miles) and the half marathon (13.1 miles).

An urban road race with an early start gives you cool air for the first hours and a straightforward pacing plan, since you pick a target and hold it. The half works well as a spring goal race or as a tune-up inside a longer build, while the marathon is the one to enter if you are hunting a qualifying time. Give the full about 16 weeks with a weekly long run, and rehearse your race-morning breakfast and fueling on those runs.
