Yuengling Shamrock Marathon

Yuengling Shamrock Marathon takes place in Virginia Beach, Virginia, on March 20–21, 2027. Three courses run through the city streets: the marathon (26.2 miles), the half marathon (13.1 miles) and an 8K, with the 8K scheduled for the Sunday. Start times are not listed in the available data.

A coastal city course in late March suits runners looking for a time, and the two-day format leaves room to combine an 8K with a longer race or to bring family who want a shorter distance of their own. If the marathon is the goal, build for sixteen weeks with a weekly long run and two quality sessions, then taper for the final two to three weeks. Seaside racing usually means wind on the exposed stretches, so tuck in behind a group rather than leading into it.
