FUN RUN COURSE
START TIME: 5pm
The 1-Mile Fun Run will start at the same time as the 5K. This is a great choice for walkers, families, kids, or anyone who wants to be part of the event but are not up for the full 3.1 mile race. The course will also start and finish at Plantation Lakes Golf & Country Club in the parking lot outside the clubhouse. The race route winds around golf course's cart paths and ends up back at the clubhouse where the Taste of the Shore food rally awaits you.
Runners must be able to complete the course within 20 minutes (19:35/mile pace).

The route will travel on the sidewalks of the some neighborhood streets and follow the cart path back to the clubhouse for the post-race festivities. The 5K will start a few minutes before the Fun Run and tee times have been adjusted to assure that the course is clear during the fun run.
Looking for More?
If the Fun Run is not enough of a challenge for you, consider signing up for the 5K instead. The 3.1 mile course winds through the front nine of the golf course and finishers will be timed as they traverse through the race route.

SOCIAL TEAMS
SOCIAL TEAMS get discounted entry fees, as well as additional benefits and prices. Running with a friend (or a group!) really is so much more fun than running alone. Once the race is over, a team is there to celebrate, and relax after the accomplishments of the day. Plus, they’ll keep people going and motivate them to keep training or finish strong if they’re starting to feel sluggish mid-race.

RACE RESTRICTIONS
The Plantation Lakes 1-Mile Fun Run is an untimed event. Participants must finish the 1-mile course in under 30 hour. As long as you can finish under the time limit, participants can run, jog or walk the entire course. Don’t worry, the post race festivites at the end of the race will be eagerly awaiting you!
Strollers and wheelchairs are permitted but are asked to start in the back of the pack. No bikes, scooters, skateboards, or other wheeled vehicles are allowed. PLEASE NO DOGS ON THE COURSE OR AT THE FINISH LINE FESTIVITIES.
TASTE OF THE SHORE
What better way to celebrate your accomplishments – music, food and drinks! We expect 6-8 food vendors at our post race celebration. Your bib will contain three Taste Tickets that you can exchange for food samples. Vendors will create a signature item for the event so you can choose any of them. Need more Tastes? No worries, you can purchase additional tickets during the registration process or on race day.
Not interested in running? No worries! Just come to the Taste. It's open to the public and tickets will be available for purchase on-site. Come cheer on the runners and hang out at this year’s most unique tasting event. Eat, drink and be merry!
