St. Pete Run Fest

Lace up those running shoes and get ready to race. Beach Drive will be the central hub for the inaugural year of St. Petersburg’s premier running event, St. Pete Run Fest, held November 18th & 19th. From first-timer runners to weathered fitness enthusiasts and everyone in-between, this two day festival has something for all ages and ability levels. Events range from the Pelikids Fun Runs, to the Sunshine City 5k, and 3 Daughters Half Marathon & Relay. First, all races start (and finish) at the acclaimed Salvador Dali Museum. Then, they’ll wind along Bayshore and Central Avenue, through the Edge, Grand Central, and Warehouse districts, giving runners a complete picture of the city. For both runners and non-runners alike, Run Fest will feature a two-day Health & Wellness Market. Held in the Al Lang stadium parking lot, the market will feature local businesses, food, craft beer, and more.
