About the 2026 Popsicle 5K Naples
The course runs through North Collier Regional Park on paths shaded by a tree canopy, which makes a real difference for a summer morning race in Naples. The terrain is gentle, and the shade holds through most of the route, keeping things manageable even when the heat is already building outside the park.
Popsicles are waiting at the finish, which fits the season. The park is a proper regional facility with room to spread out, so the post-race area does not feel cramped after you come through the line.
