St. Pete Run Fest
St. Pete Run Fest is a three day festival held in mid November that combines road races, a public expo, and post race activities in downtown St. Pete and along the scenic waterfront. The weekend program includes multiple distances and youth events, plus a dog walk and an outdoor Health & Fitness Market known as the Good Sweat Festival at Albert Whitted Park.
Race courses highlight downtown streets, historic neighborhoods, colorful murals, the St Pete Pier, and scenic waterfront areas where birds, pelicans, and dolphins may be visible. The half marathon is a certified 13.1 mile course. Race amenities listed for the weekend include on-course water and Gatorade, porta-potties at hydration stations and the start, a gear and bag check at Albert Whitted Park, and pacer groups for the half marathon.
Participant rules and services noted by organizers include allowance of strollers on the half marathon, 10K, and 5K with stroller runners asked to start toward the back; dogs are not allowed on race courses; walking is permitted within posted course time limits of four hours for the half marathon, two hours for the 10K, and one hour for the 5K. A post race party features local food, craft beer and wine, and live entertainment.
