The PB&J Run takes place at Albert Whitted Park in downtown St. Petersburg on September 19 as the event's 10th annual edition. The event features waterfront courses that run along the downtown shoreline and offer sunrise views over the Gulf.
Courses are USATF certified and chip timed. Runners pass local landmarks including the Dalí Museum, the St. Pete Pier, and the Vinoy Hotel. Course identifiers are provided for the certified routes.

Registration includes a hinged finisher medal, a performance t-shirt with the option to upgrade to a tank top or long sleeve shirt, and a commemorative race bib. The finish area hosts a post race JAMboree with unlimited peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. 15K Challenge participants receive an additional challenge gift.
The event is a fundraiser. One hundred percent of proceeds support the life saving services of the nonprofit Directions for Living.
