Event Description

NEW FOR THIS RACE SEASON: We have added 10K races to our 5 existing events and have increased and revamped our race season “Challenges” to offer something for everyone.
 
Our race season “Challenges” - Halfathon, 10k, and 5k. More Races. More Bling.
"As a new runner, I didn't realize how much I would grow in the sport by signing up for the series. Naturally, as I participated in each race I began to improve in my time, my control and learn what my body's needs to refuel are. I have learned so much about myself by simply signing up for the series of half marathons. I look forward to my third series this fall!"
 
PLEASE NOTE: Registration for the following Challenges are provided for your convenience. However, you can sign up for races in the Challenges individually as long as you use the EXACT same name on each registration – our scoring program reads Jennie Smith and Jennifer Smith as two different athletes.
 
You can Register for any of our individual races through our website at www.FloridaRoadRaces.com.

The Courses
The Ft. De Soto Distance Classic courses showcase the natural beauty of this Florida barrier island. Named the nation’s #1 Beach in 2005, you'll run on flat, paved recreational trails (no sand!) with vast views of the tranquil Gulf.
 
The Halloween Distance Classic courses at Ft. De Soto are fast and flat. Made up of recreational trails and access roads in this beautiful state park, you'll enjoy seeing the sun rise over the Sunshine Skyway. Great for setting PRs.
 
The Holiday Distance Classic course starts in Madeira Beach and ends at Taylor Park. You'll run through exclusive residential and commercial areas in our beach communities, along smoothly paved Pinellas Trail, and through shaded public parks. The Park Blvd. bridge adds some hill-work to your run or walk. Shuttle busses will bring you back from the finish line to the start line. 
 
The St. Petersburg Distance Classic courses are a scenic tour through St. Pete, from the sparkling waterfront, to beautiful historic neighborhoods, the trendy downtown, and the shaded Pinellas Trail - a rails-to-trails linear park.
 
The Shamrock Distance Classic course is exactly the same as the Halloween Halfathon course. Measure your progress from your first race to your last - perhaps you'll set some PRs!

FOR VIRTUAL ATHLETES

who would like to run or walk anywhere in the world on their own schedule and still earn one of our finisher's medals. Athletes who register for the entire series virtually will receive the series completion medal automatically.

 

There are no discounts offered for signing up early, as our virtual option is first and foremost, a fundraiser for those non-profits we support.

 

However, there are several benefits to signing up early for the entire series:

1) Registration service fees are minimized when signing up for the entire series at the same time.
2) Virtual athletes who register for the entire series will be the first athletes to be sent their finisher medals after each race.
3) Registering once is certainly more convenient than registering for each individual event.
