WARNING: Before you continue reading, be advised these events are destined to be the worst ever. Set your expectations low—very low—so that your disappointment will be minimal. We don’t promise much, and will likely provide even less.
These races are NOT for people who want a cleverly designed t-shirt or hat, great bling (actually, any bling), cute reusable race bag, spectators lining the course, crowds cheering you in, hearty food at the finish, exciting music, fancy age group awards, and a party afterward, all on a certified course. There are plenty of events out there for you.
Nor are these runs for the very fast who want to set a PR, or qualify for Boston. They are, however, a great choice for a first half or full. No time pressure and lots of encouragement.
These races are bare bones, low-key, casual events for those who want the simple basics: low entry fees, courses that are guaranteed not short, a cheap finisher’s medal, minimal support, and a generous time limit. But who needs that other stuff? As one of the cool kids, you know all you need is an event to run and a finish time. You know you want to sign up.
Start/Finish and Aid Station: The start and finish are in a small pavilion, where you may leave a drop bag. This is also the aid station, which you will pass twice each lap. We will provide water, Gatorade, Coke, Diet Mountain Dew, and light snacks, including pickles and olives.
Courses: The paved, urban run/bike trail is flat and largely shaded. This is an open course, and includes two street crossings. You are responsible for crossing safely. The marathon/half marathon course is twelve and six out-and-back loops of approximately 2.2 miles, respectively. The 5K and 10K courses are two and four laps of approximately 1.55 miles. Turn arounds will be clearly marked. The trail runs through a residential area, so we ask that you be quiet the first few hours.
Cupless: Bring your own hydration device—water bottle, hydration belt/pack. There will be a table at the start/finish for your bottles. (We will have cups for the soda.) Florida is hot and humid. We will provide ice for as long as possible.
Light: You will need a light for the first couple of hours.
Volunteers Needed: Each volunteer day earns a free race entry for yourself or someone else. Contact Bettie at bettiemw@gmail.com.
