The Run Singer Island Half Marathon & 10K takes runners along the beautiful Atlantic coastline of Singer Island, a barrier island in the Palm Beaches area of southeast Florida. Held each winter, this race offers a tropical oceanfront running experience with views of turquoise water, swaying palm trees, and the pristine beaches that make this stretch of the Gold Coast a popular getaway.
The half marathon course runs along Singer Island’s main road, Ocean Drive, with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Intracoastal Waterway visible on the other. The terrain is completely flat — as expected on a barrier island — making it a fast course for runners targeting a personal best. Winter racing conditions in south Florida bring warm but manageable temperatures, and the ocean breeze keeps runners comfortable. The compact island setting means spectators can easily move between course points to cheer runners on at multiple spots.
Singer Island’s location in Riviera Beach, just north of West Palm Beach, adds destination appeal to this race. Runners can enjoy the area’s world-class beaches, John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, and the dining and nightlife of nearby Palm Beach and West Palm Beach. The race maintains a relaxed, beach-town atmosphere with a manageable field size that keeps things personal. For runners seeking a flat, scenic winter half marathon on a beautiful Florida barrier island — with palm trees, ocean views, and warm weather guaranteed — Run Singer Island is an ideal escape from the cold.
