The story

United Airlines Guam Marathon in Tumon

Offering 5K, 10K, half marathon, and full marathon distances along Guam's western coastline, this Tumon event finishes every distance at Ypao Beach, where runners join the Tumon Bay Dip, followed by live entertainment, cultural activities, and food vendors at the beachfront finish each race weekend.

Four race distances, from a 5K to a full marathon, finish on the sand at Ypao Beach in Tumon, where finishers wade into the water for what organizers call the Tumon Bay Dip.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The Tumon Bay Dip, where finishers of every distance wade directly into the ocean at the finish line, is a distinctive, named tradition that turns the race's conclusion into a beach gathering rather than a standard finish-chute experience, while running four separate distances under one event lets a broad range of runners, from casual 5K participants to full marathoners, share the same start weekend and finish location, making the race weekend feel like a community celebration as much as a competitive event
