What's So Great

What's so great about the Walgreens St. Pete Beach Classic?

We do many things different than most other running races.

First of all:

  • Beach Party
  • Bonfire
  • Certified course distances
  • Great post-race food (not just bananas and bagels)
  • Tons of volunteers
  • Great community sponsors
     

Additionally:

  • We give awards 5 deep in 5-year age groups starting with 9 & under and going to 75+
  • The t-shirts are long sleeve tech shirts and have a design done by a local artist.
  • Ladies specific t-shirts are available.
  • There are finishers medals for the Classic 5K, Classic 10K, WSI Classic Duo, Half-Marathon, Individual Marathon Challenge and Kids' Dashes.
  • Age group awards for the Duo, Individual Marathon Challenge and Team Marathon Challenge are for first place only.

 

AND with the addition of the Classic Beach Fun Run, we are --

  • Introducing the Classic Team Marathon Challenge.
  • Moving our beach party and traditional Bonfire to Saturday night.
  • Headlining the Saturday night beach party & bonfire is a free concert.

 

All events are on the Sirata property and the races start and finish there as well.

Area Info

Deemed the "Sunset Capital of Florida", St. Pete Beach rings in the beautiful sunsets by gathering to ring a bell every evening at sunset.

With an average high of 69o F in mid-January, it is easy to feel why this beautiful Gulf Coast area is an athlete's paradise. Nestled on the Gulf Coast, St. Pete Beach has miles of beautiful white beaches. This destination offers a wide range of selections for accommodations which include luxury resorts, family owned hotels and quaint B&B's -- and was named the 3rd best Family Beach Destination in the country by Parents Magazine.

St. Pete Beach has so many activities that there isn't a reason to leave the island! Spend the day shopping the Corey Avenue District or Historic 8th Avenue in Pass-a-grille. Neighboring beach communities offer additional shopping experiences and are a short Beach Trolley ride away. Enjoy water sports like surfing, paddle boarding, kayaking, parasailing and fishing. Take a dolphin sightseeing cruise or a sunset sail. Nearby attractions include museums and art galleries, such as the Salvador Dali Museum and Chihuly Glass Gallery. There are also natural attractions, such as the award winning Fort DeSoto Park.

Whether your style is to enjoy watersports, stretch out in the sun or investigate an old fort, we have it all!
