The Cocoa Beach Half Marathon is a Florida coastal race featuring a half marathon at 7 a.m. and a 10K at 8 a.m. Based in Cocoa Beach, the event takes place in November. The half marathon is for runners only to ensure State Road A1A can reopen promptly. The 10K is open to walkers, and the half marathon has a 3-hour time limit. The course offers views of the coast's working and natural elements: fishing boats, large cruise ships, porpoises, and diving birds may be seen offshore. Following a beach section, runners will return to A1A and finish on I Dream of Jeannie Lane. The race incorporates the local TV reference with custom Jeannie bottle medals, course music, hats for pre-registered participants, discount coupons from Ron Jon Surf Shop, and post-race amenities including beer, food, massages, and medical support.

The Gobbler 5K & 10K is a local morning race held at Kelly Park West in Merritt Island, Florida. The start is scheduled for 8:00 AM near the tennis courts. Participants can choose between 5K and 10K distances. Registration is exclusively through RunSignup; no race-day signups are permitted on site. The course consists of an asphalt out-and-back loop within the park. The 5K covers this loop twice, and the 10K covers it four times, meaning runners will traverse the same section multiple times before finishing. Packet pickup is available 30 minutes before the start and concludes 10 minutes prior. Restrooms are located in the pavilion by the starting line. The race has a 2-hour time limit. The listing indicates 46 participants and 30 editions, suggesting a low-key local series with a long-established format.

The Cocoa Beach International 5K/10K begins at 8 a.m. in front of Lori Wilson Park in Cocoa Beach, Florida, by the South Pavilion. This is the event's second year, offering participants a choice of a walk, a 5K, or a 10K, with a 1-mile distance also mentioned. The course incorporates sand, and organizers state it might change because of the Martin Luther King holiday. International athletes are anticipated, making the event more than just a local beach run. All finishers will get a medal, and race kits contain a bag and T-shirt. Trophies are awarded to the top overall and age-category finishers.

Der Eye of the Dragon 10K führt dich hin und zurück über den Eau Gallie Causeway und den Indian River in Melbourne, Florida. Start ist am Eau Gallie Civic Center. Dieser Straßenlauf im Februar hat einen USATF-zertifizierten 10K als Herzstück. Wer es kürzer mag, kann den Tail of the Lizard 2 Mile laufen.

Wenn du die komplette Herausforderung suchst, melde dich für Slay the Beast an – dabei läufst du beide Distanzen am selben Morgen. Das Event ist Teil der Space Coast Runners Runner of the Year Series und lockt lokale Vereinsläufer an, die um Punkte und gute Zielzeiten kämpfen.

Die Preise sind ordentlich für ambitionierte lokale Läufer, inklusive Kategorien für Gesamtsieger, Masters, Grand Masters, Senior Grand Masters, adaptive Athleten, Altersklassen und Mixed-Teams über die Rennen hinweg. Die Streckenrekorde sind echt schnell und bieten eine gute Messlatte für die Top-Läufer. Jeder, der einen 10K- oder 2 Mile-Rekord bricht, erhält einen $100 Bonus. Der Erlös des Rennens geht an den Space Coast Runners Christian Lake Memorial Scholarship Fund. Running Zone übernimmt die Zeitmessung und Power of Pizza Charities organisiert das Event.

The Gateway to Space 5K and 10K takes place on March 5 at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The race is held on the Space Florida Launch and Landing Facility, formerly known as the Shuttle Landing Facility. This road race is set within a space program environment, with runners beginning their journey on an active Kennedy Space Center site and potentially encountering shuttle landing markers along the route. An option to participate virtually is available, and the event supports the American Cancer Society through fundraising, which is encouraged but not mandatory. Race day commences at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. Here, participants will park, check in, pass through security, and then take buses to the Launch and Landing Facility. The field comprises 5K runners, 10K runners, individuals participating in fundraising, costume contest participants, and those attracted by the unique opportunity to run in a restricted area. All finishers will receive medals, runners will be given race shirts, top fundraisers will be acknowledged, and awards will be presented to the top three finishers in each category. Each participant is eligible for only one award.
