The Average Joe Run 5K is scheduled for Saturday, April 25, 2026, at Charnow Park in Hollywood, Florida (300 Connecticut St, Hollywood, FL 33020). The course runs along a beachside path with the Atlantic Ocean as a backdrop and is described as a sun-exposed, coastal route intended for a morning event. The listing identifies a single race distance of 5 kilometers.
The event uses a conventional awards structure and a distinctive midpoint prize. Awards are presented to the top three male and female overall finishers and to winners across standard age groups. In addition, a prize is given to the runner who finishes exactly in the middle of the pack, designated as the Average Joe or Average Jane. After the race there is a post-run celebration that includes unlimited donuts and coffee. Every participant receives a personalized race bib, a dri-fit event shirt, and a finisher medal. The published entry fee for the 5K is $37.50, with a scheduled price increase after February 28, 2026 at 11:59pm EST. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
