About the 46th Annual Driscoll's Strawberry Classic
The Strawberry Classic is a long-running Tampa road race with several distance options, including a challenge that combines two of them back to back for runners who want more miles. The course runs through Temple Terrace, and the race draws a wide range of paces. Proceeds go to local charities, including a meals program and a children's fund.
Packet pickup happens on the two evenings before the race, at a local chicken salad restaurant one night and a running store the next. Race-morning pickup is also available at the start area, Temple Terrace Elementary School. Parking is spread across a few nearby lots, including a shopping center and a grocery store. After the race, the group heads to a local beer hall a short drive away.
