Fort Walton Beach, FL
Entry is $25 now and rises to $30 after Aug 1, 2026, so registering before then saves $5.
The course is described as fast and flat, stroller-friendly, and open to all paces. It benefits the Fort Walton Beach High School football team, so the crowd skews toward families and fans who already know each other. That gives the morning a neighborhood-gathering feel rather than a serious race atmosphere.
A post-race picnic follows the finish, which gives you a reason to stick around and cool down with the crowd rather than heading straight to your car.
