Run for Fun 5k

Due to damage from Hurricane Milton, we have to convert this run to a virtual event. However, Leigh will be available during shirt and medal pick-up for local runners. Please monitor your email later today for more information on how you can come by to greet Leigh and give her a great send-off!

You can still register for this race as a virtual event and we're still donating all of the profits from the race to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay.

Lace up your running shoes and join us for the one and only Run for Fun 5K—a spectacular event that perfectly blends the thrill of fitness with the joy of celebration! This unique race is not just another event; it’s a special farewell to WFLA Meteorologist and Run for Fun Podcast host, Leigh Spann. Leigh has helped start your day with a forecast for 17 years at WFLA, and we are honored to celebrate her contributions and wish her the best in her future endeavors.

This vibrant festival of movement is designed to uplift and energize participants of all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual jogger, or just want to start the day with a nice stroll, this 5K promises a course filled with other enthusiastic runners and plenty of shade to keep you motivated every step of the way.

Bring your friends, family & your love for fun and join us for this Run for Fun 5K and make it a memorable send-off for Leigh, filled with gratitude, joy, and, of course, plenty of running!

No matter the weather, this event is guaranteed to be SPANNTASTIC—a perfect 8 on the SPANNTASTIC scale!
