Yes, there is a half marathon. A half marathon is about 13.1 miles long, half the distance of a full marathon, 26.2 miles.
A full marathon is the 26.2 miles that you run for example the London marathon is a full marathon
The driving distance from Marathon, FL to Homestead, FL is 80 miles.
There is just one full marathon that consists of 26.2 miles. Due to the popularity of the race, the marathon has been spit into a half marathon and today many runners enjoy running half the distance 13.1 miles.

Half Marathon running is a rare bird really, sort of betwixt and between the 10K and marathon distances. Because its not an Olympic or national championship distance, few distance runners specialize in it. Yet the 13.1-miler has gained great popularity in the past decade demanding half marathon training schedules specific to this event.
