About the Boca 5K/10K
The course starts at Spanish River Park with the sunrise over the beach, then winds through the intracoastal and beachside neighborhoods before looping back to finish in the park. The surroundings are the draw here, salt air and quiet streets before the day gets going, and the terrain is flat the whole way.
Packet pickup runs in the days before the race at Runner's Edge, a local running shop, with a brief race-morning window at the start area as well. The parking fee at the park is waived if you are out before mid-morning, so arriving early is worth it regardless.
