Description

This isn't the cushy road race that you're used to.  For the Saturday 5K Challenge, 10K, and the Mermaid Mile Kid's Fun Run (for kids 12 and under), there is no official timing...there are no assigned corrals...there are no wave starts. There are no points for 2nd place! To win...you gotta be at the front of the pack at the start line...when the cannon goes off. You have to complete all of the obstacles, go the distance, and cross the finish line first. Whining is not allowed.  Snowflakes...this isn't for you. So before you consider signing up for this event, you really need to ask yourself..."Am I tough enough?"

 

The races in this series are the:

Storm the Bay 5K Challenge (Road/Beach surface with Beach Obstacle Course)

Storm the Bay 10K (Road/Beach Surface Run Only) 

The Mermaid Mile Kid's Fun Run (Beach run with an obstacle course for kids 12 and under)
