From the organizer
The 11 th Annual SUP & RUN 5K presented by Charles Schwab or Sarasota event will be held at Nathan Benderson Park to benefit RUCK9 ( www.RUCK9.com )
The SUP & RUN 5K gives athletes three great races in one to choose from .
5K RUN 5K Stand Up Paddle Board (SUP) OR 5K SUP & 5K RUN (There is a start line mat (chip) for the combination SUP & RUN) Athletes participating in the combination SUP & RUN will run the 5K first and then hop on their paddle board for a 5K paddle around Nathan Benderson Park. The SUP & RUN 5K draws top runners and SUP'ers who compete for cash prizes but it's our not-so-serious athletes who have the most prominent place in the event.
Athletes participating in the SUP portion of the race MUST know how to swim . If you are not able to swim, you may not participate in the SUP portion.
The SUP & RUN 5K is a family style event.
WALKERS ARE WELCOME and encouraged to attend.
