Shoreline Marathon 2027
Shoreline Marathon takes place at Solimar Beach in Ventura, California, along the Ventura beachfront and Historic Old Rincon Highway. The event features a looped, mostly flat road course with ocean views and is USATF certified as a Boston qualifying course.
Available distances:
- Marathon (full distance)
- Half marathon
- 10K
- 5K
The full distance has a seven hour time limit. Water and sports drink are provided at aid stations located about every 1.5 miles, and porta potties are placed along the course at similar intervals. The event operates cup less water stations; runners may buy a reusable cup for three dollars at packet pickup. An early start option for full marathon runners is available with prior notification to organizers, and early starters should be familiar with the out and back course and expect limited early water station coverage.
Packet pickup is held the day before the race at Ventura Fit Body Boot Camp and race day packet pickup is available at the start area. There is no athlete parking at the Rincon; shuttle service is provided from designated pickup locations including Ventura Unified School District. Entry fees listed by the organizer include Marathon one hundred seventy USD, Half marathon one hundred forty USD, 10K ninety five USD, and 5K sixty five USD. Awards are given to the top three overall male and female finishers and to the top three in each age group across all distances. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
