SUMMARY:Newport Marathon
DESCRIPTION:Course Highlights\nThe Newport Marathon runs through the scenic streets of Newport\, Oregon\, one of the Oregon coast’s most beloved towns. The course follows the shores of Yaquina Bay and takes runners past the working fishing harbor on the historic Bayfront\, along the Pacific Ocean\, and through Newport’s charming residential neighborhoods. With both a full marathon and half marathon option\, runners of all abilities can experience this coastal gem. Packet pick-up takes place the day before at Yaquina Bay Yacht Club. \nRace Details\nThe 2026 Newport Marathon and Half Marathon is scheduled for Sunday\, May 31\, 2026. With a field size of 500–1\,000 participants\, this is an intimate coastal event where every runner feels seen and supported. Newport’s May weather is typically mild and overcast — ideal for distance running — though coastal breezes and sea mist add to the maritime atmosphere. Register at newportmarathon.org. \nWhy Runners Love It\nNewport is Oregon’s quintessential coastal town\, and the marathon captures its soul beautifully. The sound of sea lions on the docks\, the smell of salt air\, fishing boats returning with the morning catch\, and a finish line within walking distance of the town’s excellent restaurants and breweries make the Newport Marathon a complete experience far beyond the miles. Many runners build a long coastal weekend around the event. \nRace-Weekend Tips\nBook accommodation in Newport or nearby Lincoln City early — coastal Oregon lodging fills quickly on race weekends. The historic Bayfront district offers excellent pre-race dinner options and post-race celebrations. Dress in layers; May mornings on the Oregon coast can be cold and windy before the sea breeze settles. Rogue Ales Brewery is among Newport’s excellent post-race celebration spots. \nRun by the sea — register at Newport Marathon.
