Cocoa Beach Half Marathon and 10K
The 12th Annual Ron Jon Cocoa Beach Half Marathon & 10K takes place on Sunday, November 15, 2026. The event uses a coastal route that begins at Patrick Space Force Base’s Hangars Beach and finishes at Lori Wilson Park’s I Dream of Jeannie Lane.
The course follows Historic Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway A1A, passes through Shepard Park, and includes a 2.9 mile stretch run on low tide, hard-packed sand along Cocoa Beach. Participants on that beach section may see fishing boats, large cruise ships, porpoises, and diving birds before rejoining A1A for the final stretch to the finish. The event carries a disco theme and features music along the course.
