Two reasons to
Visit Grand Cayman this year
1
Cayman Islands
Marathon
December 8, 2019
You can run just about anywhere in the world,
but wouldn’t you prefer to run on a safe, beautiful
Caribbean island, surrounded by tropical flora and
fauna, charming homes flawlessly landscaped and
magnificent views of the sea? If so, then check out
the Cayman Islands Marathon!
The Intertrust Cayman Islands Marathon takes
place on Sunday, 8 December 2019. The race
consists of a full marathon, half marathon, four-
person relay and a Kids Fun Run. Now in its
17th year, the event has grown from humble
beginnings of less than 100 participants the first
year to almost 1,700 participants across the four
events in 2018.
The Cayman Islands Marathon has everything
you want in a race. It’s well organised, fun and
friendly, just some of the reasons why seasoned
runners return every year to ‘#RunCayman’. The
flat and fast course is IAAF-sanctioned, and a
Boston Marathon qualifier. Race results are
available online immediately and there is a great
finish line party with free beer and massages.
Walkers are welcome to participate in the half
marathon event and all participants receive an
official 2019 Dri-Fit tech shirt or tank top and a
commemorative finisher’s medal.
