The second annual Quintiles Wrightsville Beach Marathon presented by Landfall Realty will be a historic event for those who participate. On Sunday, March 20, 2011 thousands of runners will begin their marathon quest from the ever popular destination island of Wrightsville Beach. Each will enjoy the scenic coastal views during their journey. They will wind through Landfall Community, an exclusive development in Wilmington for much of the course, and finish in Mayfaire Town Center. Competitors, their families and friends will take advantage of all the fun offered by this world famous beach destination.
We will cap the race to 2500 runners (800 in the full and 1700 in the half). This is a USATF Sanctioned Event.
