About the Sombrero Beach Run
The race starts and finishes at Sombrero Beach in Marathon, so the setting is right there on the water the whole time. The course is flat, the Florida Keys air is warm, and the surroundings are about as tropical as road racing gets outside of a resort pool deck.
The evening before the race, there is a pizza party at the beach for registration. On race morning, a breakfast spread is set up at the same spot, and after the finish there is lunch, cold beer, and a silent auction, all at Sombrero Beach.

Sombrero Beach Run 2026 Results
Going by the 2026 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Sombrero Beach Run has been held every year since at least 2016. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
