The 10th Annual Beach & Back Half Marathon & 5K returns to Brant Rock in Marshfield, Massachusetts on Sunday, June 14, 2026 — one of the most popular coastal races on the South Shore. The Half Marathon starts at 7:30am and the 5K at 8:00am, both beginning and ending at The Jetty on Ocean Street at the Brant Rock esplanade. The course winds through stunning coastal scenery — ocean views, salt marshes, and New England shoreline beauty at every mile. Runners of all levels are welcome, from PR-chasers to first-timers and families. The post-race party is legendary: every finisher gets a free beer at The Jetty plus snacks and refreshments. Half marathon runners also receive a custom beach towel, sunglasses, and a finisher medal. Organized by Wicked Fast Race Co. in partnership with RaceWire and Marathon Sports, with a 4.6-star rating on Racecheck. Part of the Surf & Turf Series.
