REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! 13th Annual Florida Holiday Halfathon (with Virtual Run Options) December 14, 2014 • Madeira Beach to Largo $55 online ONLY for the first 50 halfathon entrants or by April 6, whichever comes first Reminder: Early entrants register risk-free with our fair refund policy. Please help spread the word by sharing with your running friends! We invite you to join the holiday fun on our point-to-point course, which is fast, flat, scenic and aesthetically varied: just one small bridge (Park Boulevard Bridge, four miles into the course) and two overpasses, with the rest of the course 10 - 25 feet above sea level. The course is accurately measured and USATF certified, starting in Madeira Beach, heading north on Gulf Boulevard through exclusive residential and commercial communities to Indian Shores, before heading inland to Seminole, north along the smoothly paved Pinellas Trail into shaded and scenic Taylor Park, to the lakefront finish line, the perfect place to relax, recover, listen to live music, eat our homemade hot food, and enjoy some ice-cold beverages. Afterwards, shuttle buses are available to return you to your vehicles near the start line. All finishers earn unique, running starfish gold medals. Awards for M/F Open, Masters (40+) and Grand Masters (50+), three deep; age group awards offered three deep in 5 year increments. 7 Aid stations with enthusiastic volunteers, water and Gatorade, and fresh Florida oranges starting at the midpoint. Floridas weather in December cant be beat: average low is 52, average high is 72, perfect for running and an early-winter vacation on our award-winning beaches! This is a great race for runners training for marathons at Disney, Clearwater, Miami, and Ocala, and for endurance athletes seeking a final race before the holidays. Walkers are welcome. We offer an early start at 7:05 am and course support based on a 3:30 pace. This allows you to arrive earlier to our finish line celebration in Taylor Park, while also reducing the duration of road closing and volunteer commitments. Hope to see yall next season! active/madeira-beach-fl/running/distance-running/13th-annual-florida-holiday-halfathon-2014
