The Run Barbados Marathon Weekend is one of the Caribbean's premier running festivals, drawing 3,000 international runners to the Jewel of the Caribbean. The flat, fast coastal course winds along Barbados's west coast on the calm Caribbean Sea, past sugar cane plantations, historic plantation houses, and through the vibrant fishing village of Oistins, finishing at the Garrison Savannah — a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
