After the race, runners and friends are in the best spot to stay and participate in the 4th on Flagler Celebration by taking advantage of our "All You Can Eat" refreshments, which include hot dogs, watermelon, chips, cookies, and lemonade until 8:30pm.There is also free entertainment culminating with an epic display of fireworks and music over the Intracoastal Waterway starting at 9:09pm.
Every registered runner receives an awesome race shirt, a custom-made finisher medal, hot dogs and watermelon, and a chance to win your choice of some really cool raffle prizes. Additional "Refreshment Package" wrist bands will be available at registration for $5 per person. 5K awards will be given 3-deep for Male & Female age-groups in 5-year increments to 80+.
