The Maya Marathon (also known as the Mexico Marathon) is a unique international running event that takes place on the paradisiacal island of Cozumel, Mexico, running mostly along an asphalt bike lane with sections on the beach and dirt roads. The race offers participants a choice of a full Marathon, a Half Marathon, or a shorter 10K distance, with the course featuring views of the ocean and tropical jungle terrain. The event is organized as an all-inclusive, multi-day experience that combines the race with cultural activities, such as visiting Mayan archaeological settlements and snorkeling, offering a complete "running experience." The organizers select December to ensure milder temperatures.
