SUP & RUN 5K

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

The 11th Annual SUP & RUN 5K event will be held at Nathan Benderson Park to benefit RUCK9 (www.RUCK9.com)

🏅 Race Options

The SUP & RUN 5K gives athletes three great races in one to choose from.

• 5K RUN: Participants can opt for a traditional running experience.
• 5K Stand Up Paddle Board (SUP): Ideal for water enthusiasts.
• Combination: 5K SUP & 5K RUN
  (There is a start line mat (chip) for the combination SUP & RUN)

🚣‍♀️ Combination Race Details

Athletes participating in the combination SUP & RUN will run the 5K first and then hop on their paddle board for a 5K paddle around Nathan Benderson Park. The SUP & RUN 5K draws top runners and SUP'ers who compete for cash prizes but it's our not-so-serious athletes who have the most prominent place in the event.
