About the Event

The 11th annual SUP & RUN 5K is a multisport event held at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota, Florida. The event offers athletes a choice of three main race formats: a standalone 5K run or walk, a standalone 5K stand-up paddleboard (SUP) event, or a combination of both a 5K run and a 5K SUP. The combination event involves running the 5K first, followed by paddling a 5K around Benderson Lake.

Participants in the SUP portion must know how to swim. The event also includes a free Handcycle and Wheelchair Division and a Virtual 5K option.

Event Details

The event supports RUCK9, a nonprofit organization. It features a post-race celebration with a beer garden, a SIP & RUM station, vendors, and food. Every finisher receives a custom finisher medal and a race shirt. Awards are given six deep in each five-year age group.

Packet pickup is available on multiple days, including at Nathan Benderson Park on the Friday before the race. Parking is provided for participants, with a suggested donation to help cover costs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
