    Great race production, beautiful start and finish by the beach and the weather and humidity wasn’t an issue (not this year – but it’s Florida, every year is different). The course for the 12k runs through the neighborhoods, over a scenic bridge and through the state park which has a gorgeous canopy of trees for the last few miles. This is part of a race weekend (the 5K was the evening before) and is a good destination event. There’s also post race mimosas and massages.

    It was a hot and humid race, but lots of the race had shade- thank goodness! I was surprised that parts were on an uneven trail. It seemed like that was a last minute course change though. The rest of the course was a good mix of city/park and flat/slight inclines. The race swag was great, by signing up early we got an extra long sleeve shirt. Staying in a hotel close to the start/finish was super convenient.

    This was my second year running Zooma Amelia Island and was once again blown away by the race staff and volunteers. To be amongst so many incredible women creates an atmosphere that is joyful and empowering. The medals are absolutely stunning!
