About the Early Bird 5K Fun Run at Runners Edge
This one starts and ends at a running store in Boca Raton. The course is untimed and runs through the surrounding area in the early evening, so bring a light for the darker stretches. The whole thing is free to enter, and the mood is more group run than race.
Runners are encouraged to bring a food basket or non-perishable items to donate to Shawna's Basket Brigade, a local organization that supports families in need. After the run, there is a raffle and a casual post-run gathering at the store.
