Recurring Half Marathon races near Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Pensacola Half Marathon & 5K
SUN OCT 11
The Pensacola Half Marathon & 5K is part of the RunPensacola race series on Florida’s Gulf Coast. It is organized from Gulf Breeze by Gulf Coast Event Group. The series offers road races for different ability levels, including a half marathon for a longer effort and a 5K for a shorter race-day goal. RunPensacola emphasizes local runners and a community-style event over an elite-only field. Adam Guess founded the organization, BJ Price directs the races, and Nathan Swafford handles timing. Entries can be transferred to another person or deferred to a similar race if arranged at least two weeks before race day. Events proceed in rain, but lightning or extreme weather may alter plans, with updates posted on the series Facebook page.
Krul Lake Half Marathon
SAT NOV 14
The Krul Lake Half Marathon is a trail half marathon held on a Saturday morning at Krul Lake Recreation Area, located in Blackwater River State Forest near Milton in the Florida Panhandle. The race begins at 7:30 a.m. Central time, with a 11:30 a.m. cutoff, aligning with its reputation as a challenging trail run in Florida. The start and finish lines are situated near the Krul Lake picnic area at 11089 Krul Lake Road, meaning the event takes place within the forest recreation area, not on a town-street course. The course winds through tall long-leaf pines, leading runners back to the lake and picnic area for the finish. Prizes are awarded to the top overall male and female finishers, as well as the top two individuals in each ten-year age category. Post-race activities include Hot Spot BBQ, an awards ceremony, and a lake jump, contributing to a family-friendly park day atmosphere rather than a brief race event. Participants can pick up their race packets in Pensacola the day prior or at the venue on race morning.
Coastal Half Marathon, 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run
SAT NOV 28
The Coastal Half Marathon, 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run is a post-Thanksgiving race weekend in Orange Beach, Alabama. It offers three distances: a half marathon, a 5K, and a 1-mile fun run. The half marathon is for runners age 15 and up; the shorter events are suitable for families and mixed groups. The races utilize paved sections of Gulf State Park’s Backcountry Trail, avoiding busy beach-road running. The course winds through the coastal park landscape near Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. This event marks its 19th running and embraces its holiday timing. Participants often attend after Thanksgiving, running with family or friends, and conclude near the Gulf air, rather than making the race a separate trip.
Pensacola Beach Run Half Marathon
SAT JAN 9
The Pensacola Beach Run Half Marathon begins at Casino Beach in Gulf Breeze, Florida, with the Gulf of Mexico bordering the course. This winter road race on the Gulf Coast offers three distances on the same morning: a half marathon, a 10K, and a 5K. The surface is entirely paved, and the course is essentially flat, making it a favorable opportunity for many runners seeking a personal record rather than a challenging hill climb. The route follows beach roads adjacent to the white sand and water, bypassing downtown Pensacola. The Pensacola Runners Association organizes the event, attracting half marathoners, participants in the shorter races, local club members, and visitors extending their stay for a beach weekend. Race-day registration is unavailable. Packet pickup is distributed across Pensacola, Pensacola Beach, and Casino Beach. A live band will perform at the post-race gathering.
Big Beach Marathon, Half Marathon & Safari 5K
SAT JAN 30
The Big Beach Marathon weekend begins and ends at The Hangout in Gulf Shores, Alabama, directing runners onto paved trails within Gulf State Park. The primary Sunday events are a marathon and a half marathon, both level, quick, and USATF certified for Boston qualification. Saturday includes the Safari 5K and a family fun run/walk without timing. The series offers back-to-back race options for participants seeking multiple events. The Dolphin Challenge combines the 5K with the half marathon. The Shark Challenge pairs the 5K with the full marathon. Challenge finishers receive additional medals, shirts, and beer tickets. Virtual options for the marathon, half marathon, Dolphin Challenge, and Shark Challenge are available for remote participation.
Sea Turtle & Sweetheart Running Festival
SAT FEB 13
The Sea Turtle & Sweetheart Running Festival is a beach-side running event in Gulf Shores, Alabama. All races start and finish at The Hangout on East Beach Boulevard. Runners can select the Sea Turtle Half Marathon, True Love 10K, Sweetheart 5K Run/Walk, or Be Mine 1 Mile. This variety accommodates those seeking a timed longer race and those preferring a short run or walk by the beach. The half marathon begins first, followed later in the morning by the 10K, 5K, and mile. All four races are timed, and awards are available for competitors. The Hangout also hosts the post-race party. Each registration includes food and beer tickets; beer is restricted to participants aged 21 and over. The race names reflect both the sea turtle theme and the Valentine’s timing, lending the festival a more relaxed, social atmosphere compared to a standard single-distance road race.

About Half Marathon races in Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent

Pensacola Base Miles By The Bay

Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent hosts 7 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Pensacola is a run-happy town, and locals stack easy miles around Downtown Pensacola, Pensacola Beach, and the bayou. Community Maritime Park gives runners a promenade that is about a mile around the perimeter. The bayou route runs 9 miles. Perdido Run Club meets Mondays at 6:00 PM for 3-4 mile runs and walks from Hub Stacey's at the Point. Fleet Feet Pensacola Run Club meets Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:15 PM. Parkrun Pensacola runs Saturday mornings at 7:30 AM at UWF Rec Plex North Field. Bayou Hills 5K/10K and Bay to Breakfast 8K feel like local anchors.

Locals ride coastal and steady here, with Z2 days pointed toward Pensacola Beach, Perdido Key Boulevard, and Fort Pickens. Park West starts a clean Beach Bike Route that rolls on a multi-use path from Park West to Park East. Fort Pickens Bike Route gives riders a paved path through Gulf Islands National Seashore to historic Fort Pickens. Perdido Key Boulevard has an ample running and bike path that hugs the coast. Routes here run 5 miles to 9 and 12 miles. Northern rolling hills hold the climbs. Residential road route hills can feel downright testing, and coastal Florida flat-landers call these brutal climbs.

March, May, September, October, November, December, and February give runners and riders the best rhythm for base miles, intervals, and race weekends. March brings Bayou Hills 5K/10K, while October brings Pensacola Half Marathon & 5K and Chappie James Bridge Run. Summer keeps the work honest, because June has Disaster Dash 5K Run/ Walk and July has Ronald McDonald House Firecracker 5K through historic downtown Pensacola. Locals start early, keep the coastal routes simple, and save harder work for shade or breeze. Winter shifts both sports into comfortable mileage, with Semper Fi 5k, Pensacola Turkey Trot 5k, Ho Ho Hustle 5k, and I Pink I Can Run keeping the calendar moving.
