Coastal Bend Blood Center Run for Blood 10K
The Coastal Bend Blood Center Run for Blood is a community sports event held in Corpus Christi, Texas. The race takes place at The Water's Edge Park and serves as the primary annual fundraiser for the Coastal Bend Blood Center. This non-profit organization provides blood donor services and supplies to 22 medical facilities across a 10-county region.
Participants can choose from multiple course distances:
- 1 km (specifically for ages 10 and under)
- 5 km
- 10 km
The event supports the center's mission to maintain a safe and adequate blood supply for the local community. Registration is open to the public, with early registration discounts available before late September.
Packet pickup is organized on the day prior to the race at Fleet Feet Sports on Airline Road, as well as on-site at the park on the morning of the event. The Coastal Bend Blood Center, founded in 1969, utilizes the proceeds from this event to fund program services including donor recruitment, blood processing, and distribution through their mobile units.
