Finish Breast Cancer
The National Marathon to Finish Breast Cancer will begin at
7:30 a.m. on Sunday, February 15, 2015 at the Celgene Start
Line near THE PLAYERS Parking Lot off ATP Tour Boulevard in
Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
Runners will begin along historic coastal A1A, and meander
through the unique beach communities of Ponte Vedra
Beach, Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach and Atlantic
Beach. A 2.5 mile stretch of the course will detour onto the
beautiful hard packed sand of Florida’s coastline, which is
perfect for running! Panoramic views of the intracoastal
waterway and tidal marshland welcome runners to finish the
race, and breast cancer, at Mayo Clinic.
