Question 1

What is the course profile like?

Accepted Answer

The course is remarkably flat as it follows the coastal perimeter road of the island. The main challenge is the humidity and the breeze on the windward side of the island.

Question 2

Where is the packet pickup located?

Accepted Answer

Packet pickup is typically held at the San Andrés GHL Hotel Sunrise or a similar central plaza 1-2 days before the race. Bring your ID and confirmation email.

Question 3

What time does the race start?

Accepted Answer

Due to the tropical heat, the marathon usually starts very early, typically around 05:00 or 05:30 AM to finish before the midday sun.

Question 4

Is the course closed to traffic?

Accepted Answer

While the main coastal road (Circunvalar) is partially restricted, some local traffic and golf carts may still be present. Local police manage the primary intersections.

Question 5

How do I get around the island?

Accepted Answer

The most common way is by 'Mulitas' (utility golf carts) or taxis. For race morning, most hotels in the North End are within walking distance of the start.

Question 6

Are there hydration stations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, hydration stations are placed approximately every 2-3km, providing water and local electrolyte drinks, which are critical in the 85%+ humidity.
