The DONNA Marathon, officially 26.2 with DONNA The National Marathon to Finish Breast Cancer, is run on Sunday, February 7, 2027 in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, as the centerpiece of the 20th anniversary DONNA Marathon Weekend. It starts at 7:30 am at the Jacksonville Beach Seawalk Pavilion. The course is USATF certified and a Boston Marathon qualifier, and it also counts for the Abbott World Marathon Majors Age Group World Ranking program. The marathon and the half marathon run together through mile 13, where the half continues to the finish and the marathon turns west to the Marathon Turn and repeats the course. Hydration stations appear about every mile with water and Gatorade, and HUMA gels are available at all of them. The course stays open for 7 hours, which allows a 16-minute-per-mile pace, and Galloway pace groups are offered. There is also an adaptive athlete division and a rucking division. Every finisher receives a marathon medal, and the race benefits The DONNA Foundation, which supports people living with breast cancer.
