Chase the Dreidel 5K

Oy vey! How fast can a dreidel run?

Come find out on Sunday, December 10 at 4 pm as our life-sized dreidel spins down the streets of St. Petersburg and the Pinellas Trail on a flat, chip-timed course.  Chase the Dreidel is pure fun – everyone is welcome! 

Registrants receive a race shirt, a medal and a super potato latke buffet. Walkers and strollers welcome.  A fun run for youngsters under 11. Not running? Buy a food-only wristband at the race for just $5 • No RSVP required!

Chase the Dreidel also offers a virtual 5K option. Just lace up anywhere and still receive the race t-shirt!

Early Race registration is $36 in advance and $50 on race day.
