About the 6th Annual Veterans Run
The course follows a paved causeway trail out over Tampa Bay and back. The longer distances push to a genuine high point for this part of Florida, with open water on both sides before you turn around. Shorter distances use the same trail but turn back earlier.
After the race, the gathering moves to a waterfront bar and grill nearby. Aid stations along the course carry water and electrolytes, with extra fuel options for the longer distances.
