Cycling & running events in Port St. Lucie, 2026

Port St. Lucie Base Miles

Running: Locals keep running simple here, with base miles around Tradition, Green River Drive, Green River Parkway, Crosstown, and Jaycee park. Tradition has lots of shade, and Green River Drive from Jensen Beach Blvd to Walton Rd gives you a paved sidewalk by the savanna park. Green River Parkway runs just less than 4 miles from Walton Rd to Jensen Beach Blvd, and runners can make it 8 miles round trip. Fleet Feet Port St. Lucie hosts the Monday night group run at 6:30 PM. Crosstown Shamrock 5K, Freedom Run 5K at Tradition, Juneteenth 5K, and Dreamin' of the Keys 5K carry the local race calendar.

Cycling: Riders get the cleanest coastal feel east on Highway A1A, where dedicated bike lanes run in both directions. The route covers 4 miles of mostly gravel and dirt, with some asphalt. Treasure Coast Cycle Werks runs the Tuesday Night B Ride at 6 PM for 20 miles, the Thursday Ice Cream Social Ride at 6 PM for 12 miles, and the Sunday A/B ride from Darwin Square at 7:30 AM for 50-75 miles. Port St. Lucie has no named hills, so climbs are not the point here.

Season: Winter gives both sports the good stuff, with mild to warm days and average highs in the 70s. Locals stack Z2, long runs, and longer group rides then, because the weather lets you stay out without making every workout feel like intervals. Summer brings average highs in the low 90s, so runners and cyclists go early, keep bottles close, and respect the humidity. 5 inches of precipitation in a year, and summer changes the rhythm more than the routes. Beach sand at Fort Pierce or Jensen Beach still works when you want a harder run without hunting for hills.
