Run by the sea and through the most storied beach history on the Space Coast as you head up coastal A1A into Cocoa Beach. From there, you will continue up A1A passing by our title sponsor’s World Famous Ron Jon Surf Shop and looping through a tree-lined neighborhood before entering an access where you will begin your low-tide, 2.9 mile run on the flat and hard-packed sands of Cocoa Beach. Off the coast you are very likely to see fishing boats, giant cruise ships, porpoises and diving birds. Once off the beach, you will head back onto A1A and a fabulous finish on I Dream of Jeannie Lane!
The race features the individual 10K distance AND the Half Marathon. There is also a Genie costume division specifically for those who run in their favorite Genie apparel and a Major Anthony Nelson division for those running in military uniform! There is a HARD 3 hour time limit for all entrants.

While the shirt and medal where top notch, the lack of organization doesnt make up for it. I signed up on the first day of registration and there was no tab for my shirt size and it took months of emails to get my size requested. The host hotel offered was a dump, and my favorite when I signed up there was to be no beach running. Yet when I got there to run the race there was now 3 miles of the course on the beach. Their idea of hard packed sand was soft sand hard to run on. The expo was in the Ron Jon surf shop parking lot so to get to the expo you had to illegally park. The course was a lot of narrow roads, parking lots to make up distance and beach miles which got old fast. After the race the food and beer lines where ridiculous. Dont bother doing this race for the bling, just do the virtual option and find another Florida race
