Race Information

Prince of Wales Island is part of the Alexander Archipelago in the southernmost portion of the Alaska panhandle and is the third largest island in the United States. Our island is 135 miles long and 40 miles across. Its 900 miles of coastline has numerous bays, coves, inlets, and points.

The out-and-back half marathon course follows the full marathon course but does not venture into the more mountainous portion of the full marathon. Wildlife sightings are not uncommon on race day. The Prince of Wales Island Marathon is USATF certified, #AK14007FW. Race times may be used as time qualifiers for the Boston Marathon.
