The Grayt Easter Race

The Grayt Easter Race takes place on Easter weekend in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. The event is held within Topsail Hill Preserve State Park. Runners can choose from three different courses.

The event offers the following race distances:

  • Paved Path 5K: An out-and-back course run completely on a paved surface.
  • Paved Path 10K: A course that does the 5K out-and-back route twice, also on a paved surface.
  • Trail 10K: A loop course featuring approximately 2 miles on paved roads, 1.25 miles on sand, and 3 miles on trails. This course passes by pine trees, beach, and dune lakes.

All runners who finish will receive a finisher's medal. Additional awards are given to the men’s and women’s course winners, runners-up, and the top finisher in each age group.

Packet pick-up is scheduled for the day before the race at a specified location in Inlet Beach, Florida. The event has a no-refund policy, but registered participants may transfer their bib to another runner within a designated period.

For safety, animals are not permitted. Strollers and similar wheeled equipment are allowed but must start at the back of the pack. Participants with adaptive running devices are asked to contact organizers before race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
