Gulf Shores, AL
Entry is $14 now and rises to $15 after May 28, 2027, so registering before then saves $1.
The course runs on city streets near Tacky Jacks in Gulf Shores, and it is flat enough that people genuinely chase personal bests here. It wraps up a summer race series, so the field tends to include runners who have been building toward this one all season. The tradition of showing up in team colors before football season starts gives the morning a particular look.
