WARNING: Before you register, Read everything below. Here are the main points:
  1.      See start times above.
  2.      Not designed for speed.
  3.      No age group awards, no t-shirts, no bling.
  4.      Cupless—bring your own bottle.
  5.      For marathon and half marathon you’ll need a light
Now, if you haven’t tuned out yet, be advised these events are bare bones, low-key, casual, fun events. Great for first timers, maybe not so great for a PR. This is not a certified or sanctioned course—meaning, among other thing, NOT a Boston qualifier. Don’t expect much and maybe you won’t be disappointed. 
 
WHAT YOU DON’T GET: t-shirt, hat, socks, or any other apparel, great bling (actually, any bling), cute reusable race bag, age group awards, spectators lining the course, crowds cheering you in, hearty food at the finish, exciting music, and a party afterward, all on a certified course. There are plenty of other events out there for you.
 
WHAT YOU DO GET:  low entry fees, courses that are guaranteed not short, a cheap finisher’s medal, minimal support, a generous time limit, and a published finish time. But isn’t that all you really need? What do you do with all that other stuff anyway? You know you want to sign up. Really, where else can you run a marathon for $65?
 
COURSES:  The courses are lap courses, meaning that you’ll do a double out-and-back multiple times. Which means you’ll see other runners going and coming. Not as boring as it might sound. The paved, urban run/bike trail is flat and largely shaded. This is an open course, and includes two street crossings each lap. You are responsible for crossing safely.
 
The marathon and half marathon lap is approximately 2.2 miles. The full is twelve laps and the half is six laps. 
 
The 5K and 10K lap is approximately 1.55 miles—two laps for the 5K and four laps for the 10K.
 
Turn arounds for each distance will be clearly marked. Rubber bands will be available to help you keep track of your laps. 
 
AID STATION: The aid station is at the start/finish of the loop course, which you will pass two times each lap. We will provide plenty of water and Gatorade, Coke, Diet Mountain Dew, and a variety of light snacks. This is a cupless race. Bring your own hydration device—water bottle, hydration belt/pack. 
 
HEAT:  Florida is typically hot and humid. We will provide ice for your water/Gatorade, hat, water bottle, etc. We will also have ice water in a bucket for you to dip your hat, cooling towel, etc. We will also have pickles, olives, and pickle juice, as well as a variety of salty snacks.  
 
LIGHT: Marathoners and half marathoners will need a light for the first couple of hours. It won’t get light until around 6:40.
 

BATHROOMS: The bathrooms are a little walk from the start/finish, but you’ll pass them during each lap.

 

DROP BAG: The start/finish is in a small pavilion, where you may leave a drop bag.  

 

If you are still undecided (congratulations for reading this far), and you want to know what to expect, we won’t likely have world class athletes based on speed, but we will likely have world class athletes based on numbers of marathon completed. For example, in 2024 we had the number one and number three male marathoners North America (Jim Simpson and Henry Rueden). We also had the number one and number three female marathoners in North America (Angela Tortorice and Liz Gmerek). Think four-digit numbers. Just imagine the stories!

 

VOLUNTEERS: We always need volunteers. Each volunteer day earns a free race entry for yourself or someone else. Contact Bettie at bettiemw@gmail.com.
