A half marathon with the Caribbean alongside. Build a running weekend: an easy shakeout, race morning by the sea and the old city to explore once your legs recover.

Your event plan
Before, during and after.
Before the race
One easy 20 to 30 minute run and a short swim to loosen up. Collect your race kit early.
Race day
Start early and hydrate well: the heat and humidity build quickly after sunrise.
After
Float in the lagoon, sleep in, then walk the walls at sunset.
