CANCELLED! CLEARWATER HALFATHON TO RUN INSTEAD!
Chris Lauber
(1/7/06)
I am very disappointed to announce the 7th annual Florida Gulf Beaches Marathon on January 22, 2006 is cancelled, due to road construction on Gulf Boulevard, one of the narrowest parts of our 26.2 mile course.
This is a temporary situation. I have every intent to continue staging the marathon in 2007 and beyond.
