Miami Marathon

Please note that the city of Miami and the event organizers typically finalize specific road closure maps and transit schedules closer to the race date [5]. ### **Public Transit to the Start Line** * **Metrorail and Metromover:** Miami-Dade Transit typically provides early morning service to accommodate runners. In previous years, service has begun as early as 4:00 a.m. on race morning to help participants reach the downtown area [3, 6]. * **Recommendation:** Check the [Miami-Dade Transit website](https://www.miamidade.gov/transit) closer to the event date for the specific 2027 race-day schedule [3, 5]. ### **Shuttle Services** * **Race Morning Shuttles:** The event offers shuttle services for registered athletes between Miami Beach and the Start Line [1]. * **Booking:** You must purchase shuttle tickets in advance through your ChronoTrack profile or in-person at the Expo (subject to availability) [1].
