Bagel Run Tampa
The Bagel Run is a community-focused running event held at the Riverwalk in Bradenton, Florida. This event emphasizes a stress-free environment for participants of all ages and abilities. Organized as a smaller, private group run, the event features a series of waves with limited capacity to maintain an intimate setting. Participants can choose to run or walk their selected distance.
Available distances include:
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- 5 km
- 10 km
- 13.1 miles (Half-Marathon)
The event does not use chip timing, though timing is optional. Participants may track their own progress using personal devices or request assistance from on-site coordinators to record their finish times for the online results page. There is no requirement for packet pickup on the days leading up to the race; instead, race shirts are shipped directly to the participant's provided US address, and race bibs are distributed on the morning of the event.
Entrants receive a swag bag that includes a finisher's medal, a running T-shirt, and a finisher's towel or similar giveaway. For those unable to attend the physical location, a virtual run option is available, which includes a digital training pack and the same physical rewards upon submission of results.
