Pick up your bib, check your wave.

Eagle Lakes Community Park, 11565 Tamiami Trail E, Naples, FL 34112, sits directly on Tamiami Trail (US-41), a corridor served by Collier Area Transit (CAT).
Park is on a major CAT bus corridor (Tamiami Trail E) so some transit access is plausible, but no confirmed stop at the venue;
car/rideshare recommended.
None confirmed
Loop-course race, finish at same park location as start.
No organizer shuttle found.
Naples/Collier County's Collier Area Transit (CAT) uses reloadable Smart Cards for multi-ride passes (e.g., 15-day/30-day passes),
purchasable via the rideCAT app, online, or at transfer stations;
single cash fares and paper transfer tickets are also accepted on board.
CAT upgraded its fare system in June 2026, so checking the current rideCAT app for exact single-ride pricing is recommended before race day.
Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.
Naples in November — average 19°C, an ideal temperature for chasing a personal best.
Your body temperature can drop quickly while waiting at the start, so wear a disposable outer layer and remove it just before the gun.
Public transport does not reach the venue.
A private car or rental car is the only practical option.
Registration is handled through the RunSignup platform.
Full marathon really begins after 30km.
It is better to pass halfway 5–10 seconds slower than your target pace to improve your chances of maintaining pace in the second half,
and start taking gels early, before you feel hungry.
The start is at 08:00. Registration closes on 2026-11-07.
Times are local to Naples. Check the latest official information before the race.
