Dare to run three races in two days! Or, run 2, or even a single event, the Wicked Triple Fun 10K, 5K and Half Marathon is a premier event to raise funds to build a State of the Art Rubberized Track for Okaloosa County. The 10K which starts at 7:30am is the first leg of the three part series, followed by a sunset 5K later the same day at 5:30pm and a half marathon at 7:30am the next morning.
All 3 races are fast and flat yet challenging. The certified 10K course runs through the neighborhoods surrounding downtown Fort Walton Beach. The race start and finish is at The Landing on Brooks Street. The 5K course will run along Beachview Drive in Cinco Bayou, and the Half Marathon starts and finishes at The Landing on Brooks Street.
The 10K awards ceremony will take place at Magnolia Grill on Brooks Street immediately following the race. Food, soft drinks and beer will be provided for all of the race participants. The 5K awards ceremony and after party will be held at AJ’s on the Bayou. There will be a throwdown on Sunday morning at The Landing after the half marathon. The celebration will be for everyone who participated in any of the three races in the Wicked Triple Fun Series. Food, drinks and live music will be provided to congratulate everyone who participated in this grass roots effort to enhance our community by building a rubberized track in Okaloosa County

This is a nice flat course, but newcomers and slow runners are not really welcomed or supported. Although they provide an early start for walkers and those who cannot finish in 3 hours or less – and they prefer less – these individuals don’t get to place in age groups. In addition, the course markings were obscured behind people working at the last water station and as a result I missed the last leg before the turn around.
