Hunger Run/Walk 5K & 10K and Kids Fun Run
Bluewater Fitness hosts a community run and walk in Niceville, FL called "Sock It To Hunger." A portion of the proceeds benefit Niceville Sharing and Caring. T-shirts are guaranteed for participants who register before 3/15/27.
The event includes these distances:
- 5K out-and-back along White Point Road and returning to the gym.
- 10K scenic route with bay views through Bluewater Bay neighborhoods; there is a short sandy or non-paved turnaround at the end of Maxwell Gunter. The 10K has a 90 minute time limit.
- Kids Fun Run for ages 3 to 10, split into two heats.
The Kids Fun Run is organized by age: children ages 3 to 6 complete one lap around a storage unit, and ages 7 to 10 complete two laps. Medals are awarded to the top two males and top two females in each heat, and every child receives a goodie bag at the finish. Participants must be at least 3 years old and no older than 10 to enter the Kids Fun Run; older children may enter the 5K or 10K.
