Runners racing the 10k will turn left (west) on NE 2nd St, a block before the finish line, and then right (north) on A1A for the second loop. This eliminates the turn near the start and finish in the 2025 run, and should make for a speedy sprint finish!

The 5k and 10k course distances will be certified. We will be welcoming runners, walkers, and spectators from across the region. Participants will include members of our local running community as well as First Responders from Police, Fire Rescue, Ocean Rescue, Military, and more.\nAll proceeds will be donated to the following 501(c)3 non profit organizations:\nSouth Florida First Responders Foundation\nStomping Out the Stigma – Provides free, confidential mental health counseling for First Responders and Military Personnel.
