A Caribbean island is an incredible place to run a marathon and Grand Cayman doesn’t disappoint! The picturesque course takes you through the financial district of George Town, along the beautiful waterfront and through South Sound with its charming homes and magnificent views of the sea. Temperatures are usually around the low 70s, with a cooling breeze ensuring comfortable conditions. And despite the early start, the Cayman community is up and out to help motivate tired runners with music, creatively decorated water stands and cheers along the route!
All runners who complete their race will receive a commemorative finishers medal. In addition, awards are given to the top 3 males and females overall in the Marathon, Half Marathon, Wheelchair Half Marathon and the top three teams in 5 different relay divisions.
The Walkers Cayman Islands Marathon benefits two great causes in the Cayman Islands: the Cayman Islands Cadet Corps and the Cayman Islands Cancer Society. Competitors are also encouraged to raise money for their preferred charity.
