Upcoming events for runners Emerald Coast 2024

Many people (yours truly included) picture a beach vacation that includes lots of lounging in the sun, playing in the waves, building sand castles, reading and eating some great seafood.

Ah-Relaxing on the beach!

However, there’s a special group of people that think of a beach vacation and picture of all the activities they can do while they’re there.

  • Swimming in the Ocean!
  • Paddle Boarding!
  • Kayaking!
  • Running on the beach!

Marathons in Destin #So, who among us plans a beach vacation while thinking “I’m going to the beach to run in a race” If you are one of these people, first and foremost, I salute you!  Having the physical ability to complete such a feat is amazing!  If you DO want to come to Destin to enjoy the last official month of summer and ALSO compete in (or be a spectator) a Triathlon, August is the month to do it!

On Tuesday, August 24th, the 27th Annual Sandestin Triathlon Race will lure 700 participants for a half-mile Gulf of Mexico swim, a 20-mile bike along the coast, and a 4-mile run through Sandestin’s beachside and bayside communities. Proceeds of the triathlon will benefit Sacred Heart Hospital of the Emerald Coast.
