SUMMARY. Flat, asphalt road surfaces

The Myrtle Beach Marathon and Half Marathon are highly recommended for those seeking a flat, fast course in a beautiful coastal setting.

The start and finish lines are located near the beach, providing stunning ocean views and a refreshing sea breeze that enhances the overall running experience.
