The Breakers Resort is located in the heart of Myrtle Beach offering spectacular ocean views and miles of white sandy beaches. March is a great time of the year to visit with less crowds and warmer temperatures. The amenities on property will allow you to rest and relax. If you are heading to the Grand Strand to participate in the Myrtle Beach Marathon, this is an ideal location to rest and prepare for the race and pamper yourself after the race.
Marking its 22nd running in 2019, the Myrtle Beach Marathon will see hundreds of participants lace up and pound 26.2 miles of coastal pavement on Saturday, March 2 — all while taking in the Grand Strand’s beautiful views and comfortable climate. For those less inclined to go the full distance, the event also offers a half-marathon, a 5K race and a 1-mile family fun run on March 2, while the Myrtle Beach Marathon Health and Wellness Expo will get the weekend rolling on Friday, March 1.
Whether you’re a serious runner or a casual race participant, the Myrtle Beach Marathon offers a unique appeal — the Grand Strand’s flat, coastal terrain makes the race one of the fastest and least-taxing on the East Coast. Further, the area’s temperate March weather typically delivers superb running conditions, with temperatures expected to be in the 40s as the morning races begin, and reaching into the 60s as the day progresses.
