Run With Meb!
The 5th Annual Run With Meb! takes place at Al Lopez Park in Tampa, Florida. This athletic event benefits the MEB Foundation, an organization that focuses on promoting youth health, education, and fitness. The foundation supports programs that provide tools for healthy lifestyles and engages youth in academic and sports activities to learn positive life skills.
Participants can choose from several distances:
- 10 km (6.2 miles) chip timed race
- 5 km (3.1 miles) chip timed race
- 1 mile fun run or walk
- Virtual options for all three distances
In-person participants in the 10 km and 5 km categories receive a gender-specific shirt, a chip-timed bib, and a custom finisher medal. The virtual option allows individuals to complete their chosen distance at any time or location. Virtual registrants can choose to run, walk, or bike, and race shirts are mailed to participants with a United States address the week after the event.
Awards are presented for the top overall male and female finishers in the 10 km and 5 km races. There are also awards for the top male and female finishers in the youth category for those aged 9 and under in the 5 km. Additionally, first-place awards are given to male and female finishers in five-year age groups ranging from 10 to 80+. Parking is available at Al Lopez Park at no charge.
