Run Manatee - Rye Preserve 5K
The Run Manatee event at Rye Preserve in Parrish, Florida takes place on November 21, 2026. It is the final event in the RUN Manatee 5k series and offers a run and community activities set on mixed terrain through four distinctive ecosystems: sand pine scrub, xeric oak scrub, oak hammocks and the river community. Wildlife sightings in the preserve can include the gopher tortoise and Florida scrub-jay.
Event programming includes a 5K run/walk presented by Run with Purpose Nutrition, a short fun run for all ages, a trainer-led warm up, and a yoga cooldown. The day also features a marketplace with local food and vendors, and awards for top finishers in overall and youth categories.
Entry details for the 5K include a registration fee of $35.00, pre-registration requirement for the 5K, a dri-fit event T shirt for registrants and a custom finisher medal. Shirt sizes are guaranteed for registrations completed by October 30, 2026. Packet pick up is offered in the days before the event at local locations and on site at Rye Preserve. Ten percent of 5K registration fees will be donated to Foundation for Dreams, which operates Dream Oaks Camp within Rye Preserve.
