This exhilarating event offers a chance to challenge yourself across various distances in the sunny coastal city of Fort Pierce.

The race features a scenic out-and-back asphalt course, beginning conveniently by the tennis courts, with bathrooms located in the nearby pavilion.

Adding to the vibrant atmosphere, all finishers will be awarded a unique themed medal to commemorate their achievement. While not mandatory, costume participation is encouraged, offering a fun opportunity to express your ninja spirit and potentially win an award for the best costume. This event is also part of the US Road Running Race Series, allowing participants to earn points as they push their limits and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow running enthusiasts.
