5-Mile Beach at Wildwood Crest Half Marathon

The 5-Mile Beach at Wildwood Crest offers a coastal multi-distance race series in Wildwood Crest, New Jersey. The event features a Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, and a Combo 5K/10K, held at sunrise along the Jersey shore near Ocean Avenue and Rambler Road Park. The course uses two loops of a 3.277-mile out-and-back to complete the half, with mile markers and turnarounds guiding runners.

Participants receive a shirt, finisher medal, and running socks, plus finish-line snacks, water, and Gatorade. All first-time half marathon finishers earn a plaque; non-binary registration options are available, and a festive, family-friendly beach-day atmosphere rounds out the event.
