PwC Bermuda Marathon

In 2020, the Chubb Bermuda Triangle Challenge debuted a new course for the PwC Bermuda Marathon. With the guidance and input of local runners who, collectively, have put in thousands of miles training in Bermuda, the original marathon course from 1975 (consisting of two 13.1-mile loops) was reimagined as a point-to-point running tour of the island.

Now, participants in the PwC Bermuda Marathon embark on an epic adventure beginning with a free ferry ride on marathon morning from downtown Hamilton, across the Great Sound, to the race's starting point on the west end of the island: the historic Royal Naval Dockyard. On the 26.2 mile journey, you will exerience some of Bermuda's most famous beaches and historic sites, including running across Somerset Bridge (the world's smallest working drawbridge) and past Gibb's Hill Lighthouse (one of the first lighthouses in the world to be made of cast-iron).

Don't worry, though, if you're not a history fan, we've got you covered. Along with the improved scenic views, the marathon course also features two rum stops sponsored by Goslings where you can sample their world-famous rum cocktails to put that extra pep in your step, as well as a variety of live entertainment and local cheering squads along the way to keep your spirits high as you head to the finish line.

Plus, if you want an extra challenge, you can run 3 races in 3 days as part of the Chubb Full Bermuda Triangle Challenge, which includes the Butterfield Mile, the Allshores 10k Run/Walk, and the PwC Bermuda Marathon. 3 races, 4 medals, and a high-quality Finisher's Jacket to wear with pride! (Free with registration: bragging rights, shameless selfies, and at least two days post-race of being able to complain about sore quads/calves.)

(Please note that if you plan to run the PwC Bermuda Marathon you should make arrangements to pick up your number either Friday, January 15 or Saturday, January 16. There will be no number pickup on Sunday, January 17)

Participants in the PwC Bermuda Marathon will receive a 2027 Chubb Bermuda Triangle Challenge technical t-shirt, a custom 2027 PwC Bermuda Marathon Finisher's Medal, a custom finisher's certificate, and a swag bag. In addition, everyone is invited to celebrate their accomplishments at the post-race Finish Festival in Barr's Bay Park, featuring music, free food and snacks (including Oscar Mayer hot dogs, Nature Valley granola bars, Herr's potato chips, and Haagen Dazs ice cream) courtesy of Butterfield and Vallis, samples of locally brewed beer courtesy of Bermuda Craft Brewing and of course rum cocktails samples courtesy of Goslings.

Please note you must be at least 16 years of age on Sunday, January 17, 2027 to participate in this event. There is a 6:00 time limit on the PwC Bermuda Marathon.

Please note that Bermuda Triangle Challenge participants and people that register for more than one race (e.g., the 10k and the half) will only receive one shirt.
