Newport Amica Marathon

Amica Newport Marathon

The Amica Newport Marathon immerses runners in the heart of Rhode Island’s coastal landscape, where maritime heritage meets the raw power of the Atlantic Ocean. The course winds along the peninsula’s rocky shoreline, offering sweeping ocean views and glimpses of the famous 19th-century grand estates (Gilded Age mansions).

Athletes pass through standout sections like Ocean Drive, where offshore winds accompany every stride, before turning onto roads overlooking Easton's Beach. The miles tick by over rolling but approachable terrain, paced by the cheers of spectators gathered along the route. Whether tackling the full distance or the half marathon, the run back to the finish unfolds in an exceptional coastal setting, wrapping up the adventure right on the waterfront.
