About the First State Bank Key Largo Bridge 10k/5k Run/Walk

The course crosses Jewfish Creek Bridge, which spans the water between Florida Bay and Barnes Sound. Outside of that bridge, the route is flat road. The bridge is the one real climb, and the views from the top are the reason most people come back. It is a short, sharp effort with open water on both sides.

Packet pickup runs the afternoon before the race at a local bank on the Overseas Highway, with race-morning pickup available at the Anchorage Resort access road for those who miss it. Parking is at Key Largo School, and shuttles run from there to the start. A gear check tent is set up near registration.

Common Questions About the First State Bank Key Largo Bridge 10k/5k Run/Walk

Will I finish last at the First State Bank Key Largo Bridge 10k/5k Run/Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 44:48, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:31:30, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the First State Bank Key Largo Bridge 10k/5k Run/Walk a good first 5K?

A field of 371 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the First State Bank Key Largo Bridge 10k/5k Run/Walk?

The 5K winner ran 20:26 while the median finisher took 44:48. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
