Surf & Sun 5K Run

Lace up for the Surf & Sun 5K Run, an exhilarating 5K event on Saturday, February 7, 2026, that brings a vibrant beach-day atmosphere to Cumming, GA. Held at the picturesque West Bank Park, this race promises stunning scenery and a "super flat & fast course" along the beautiful shore of Lake Lanier, offering runners "incredible 360-degree views" of sparkling water and winter skies throughout the race. It's an ideal course for chasing a personal best or enjoying a leisurely run with family.

All participants will earn a custom finisher medal, a tangible reminder of conquering the course, and awards will be presented to overall top finishers and across 5-year age groups. Water stations will be conveniently located approximately every 1.5 miles to keep you hydrated.

The race starts at 8:30 AM EST in West Bank Park, with parking available in the second lot past the entrance. Come out to West Bank Park, located at 2995 Buford Dam Rd, Cumming, GA, ready to "surf the winter waves" and enjoy a truly memorable running experience.
