2026 Atlantic City Marathon
The 2026 Atlantic City Marathon is a flat, fast USATF-certified Boston qualifier held on October 18, 2026, starting and finishing on the Atlantic City Boardwalk. The out-and-back course heads south through Ventnor, Margate, and Longport, with minimal elevation gain of about 60 meters.
October on the Jersey Shore means crisp ocean air and a boardwalk that's quieter, but still buzzing—perfect for a marathon that finishes with the Atlantic beside you. Between the miles, soak up the neon glow of the casinos and the historic charm of the shore towns, then reward yourself with a classic saltwater taffy and a bowl of clam chowder at a local seafood shack.
