Portland Coastal 10k 2023
12 February 2023
For 2021 and beyond, the Full and Half route will have no specific markers relevant to the Portland Coastal Marathon.
This is to ensure that we have the minimum possible impact on what is a beautiful and natural environment along the way - for the 10k - the route will be marked at the point the route splits from the main coastal marathon.
You are expected to navigate the route yourself.

The Race -
The Portland Coastal Marathon will be taking place from the iconic Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy on Sunday 12th February 2023
Along with the 10k event there will be a Full marathon and a half distance so all abilities can take part in this festival of running in a what is possibly the most stunning of coastal trail locations.
The route follows the Portland section of the South West Coastal Path. The path is marked on fingerpost signs by an Acorn symbol and is a well trodden track for the majority of the way.
Basic principle for the half is ‘keep the sea on your left and the land on your right’ and you will not go far wrong. 10k, well, we may have to give you a sign or two to follow.
Please follow the route marked on your map. Deviating from the marked route on the map or taking shortcuts is not in the spirit of the event and could lead to potential disqualification.
You will have timing check in points at the feed stations, dotted around the island as usual, to make sure you have completed the entire course. This remains the same as previous years.
