Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Healthy Boo-Bays 5K
The Healthy Boo-Bays 5K is an annual October 5K held at Tradition Square on Florida’s Treasure Coast, starting at 7:30 AM. Friends in Pink hosts this event, which focuses on breast cancer support.
The race proceeds benefit Friends in Pink, Inc., assisting Treasure Coast residents diagnosed with breast cancer with surgery and treatment costs when they have limited or no health insurance. The previous race generated nearly $8,000, and the first 400 registrants will receive participation medals.
Martin County Healthy Start's Madison's Miracles Remembrance Walk & 5K Run For Babies Gone Too Soon - Saturday, October 17 th - 7:30AM - Memorial Park
Madison's Miracles Remembrance Walk & 5K Run For Babies Gone Too Soon is a Saturday morning run and walk in downtown Stuart, Florida. Check-in begins at 6:30 AM, with the event starting at 7:30 AM. The course begins and concludes by the outdoor amphitheater at Veterans Memorial Park, offering a 5K, a 1-mile option, and a 1.6 km distance.
This Martin County Healthy Start fundraiser remembers babies gone too soon. Participants can join in person at the park or remotely via a virtual race option. This year marks the 10-year Madison's Miracles milestone, adding personal significance beyond a typical local 5K.
Trick-Or-Trot 5K Trail Run
AlexTru Foundation - 4th Annual 5k — now on October 31, 2026!
The AlexTru Foundation race is a Halloween-themed 5K and 10K held at Okeeheelee Park in West Palm Beach, Florida. Participants can run or walk in person, opt for a virtual 5K or 10K, or bring children for the kids' fun run. The event welcomes a broad range of participants, with all ages and ability levels invited, and offers reduced registration fees for those age 65 and older.
Costumes are encouraged, positioning the race as a community fundraiser rather than solely a competitive event. Entry fees benefit the Alexander Trujillo Foundation, which raises funds for young adult cancer patients aged 18 to 34. All race proceeds fund the foundation's Grant Program, assisting patients and their caregivers or families with financial needs during cancer treatment.
Wellington 5k, 10 Miler and Tower Challenge
The Wellington 5k, 10 Miler, and Tower Challenge begin and end at Tiger Shark Cove Park in Wellington, Florida. This fall race series is designed for runners training for longer events, such as half marathons and marathons, offering a 5k and two 10-mile distances.
The 5k route runs along Greenbrier Boulevard. The 10 Miler travels through the Wellington Environmental Preserve at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Everglades Habitat. This longer course includes paved paths, shell rock roads, and boardwalks through wetland areas. The Tower Challenge incorporates a run up and down a 5-story tower within the 10-mile race. Now in its 19th year, the series benefits the Kids Cancer Foundation and other local charities.
United We Run 5k
The United We Run 5K begins and ends at the US Sailing Center, located at 1955 NE Indian River Drive in Jensen Beach, Florida. The race commences at 7:00 AM EDT. Registration opens in May and concludes at 6:30 AM EDT, just before the race begins. The entry fee is $40.
The course description is minimal: the US Sailing Center on the waterfront serves as both the start and finish line. Participants unable to attend in person may opt for a virtual 5K run or walk, allowing them to complete the distance from any location. The venue's significance extends beyond race management, as the US Sailing Center provides athletic programs for young people in the area.
Treasure Coast Endurance Challenge
The Treasure Coast Endurance Challenge takes place at Jonathan Dickinson State Park in Hobe Sound, Florida, starting on SE Federal Highway. This is a navigation-focused endurance event, not a simple road race. Participants use pre-plotted CalTopo maps to locate checkpoints situated at trail junctions, canals, bays, and wetlands. The event offers a 5K trail run and 4-hour or 8-hour adventure race formats, with distances ranging from 5 km to 38.6 km.
The course crosses the park’s trails, waterways, and natural terrain. Racers will trek or trail run, cycle single-track mountain bike paths, travel on dirt and gravel roads with some paved sections, and paddle flat water via kayak or canoe. The 5 km trail run is the most attended choice, but the adventure races are the unique aspect of the series, requiring participants to navigate, change between disciplines, and select their own routes rather than following a marked running path.
Dolly Parton's Imagination Library Run for Reading 5k walk and run
The Dolly Day 5K is a 5k walk and run held on the Yakima Greenway at Sarg Hubbard Park in Yakima, Washington. It begins at 10:00 AM, following 9:00 AM check-in, and benefits Dolly Parton's Imagination Library via United Way of Central Washington.
The event centers on books alongside running: participants are invited to dress as their favorite Dolly persona. The day features music, prizes, vendors, and a Little Library Exchange for swapping books. Funds and focus are directed toward providing books for local children, making the race suitable for walkers, casual runners, families, and supporters of the literacy mission.
Gobbler 5K, 10K, 13.1M, & 26.2M, Fort Pierce, FL (46)
The Gobbler race in Fort Pierce, Florida, begins near the tennis courts at 5990 Emerson Avenue, offering runners four distance options: 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon. The event commences at 8:30 AM, with packet pickup available 30 minutes prior. Registration must be completed on RunSignup before race day, as no on-site sign-ups are permitted.
The course consists of asphalt with repeated out-and-back segments, meaning participants will traverse the same path multiple times rather than completing a large loop. The 5K involves one out-and-back, the 10K two, the half marathon four, and the marathon eight, all within a 6-hour time limit. Restrooms are located in the pavilion close to the start. The race provides finisher medals, awards, series points, a gear shop, and a best costume prize.
Pelican Yacht Club Turkey Trot 5K
The Pelican Yacht Club Turkey Trot 5K begins at 7 a.m. EST on Thanksgiving morning on South Hutchinson Island. This public 5K is hosted by the Pelican Yacht Club, which opens its doors to non-members for a holiday run benefiting Jaycee Park and the local running community.
The route winds through neighborhood streets, reaches Ocean Boulevard, includes a jog along the jetty, and finishes back at the Pelican Yacht Club in time for Thanksgiving dinner plans. The race, though in its early editions, is capped at 750 participants and has sold out previously. Non-runners can purchase Zero-K passes, support friends and family, and enjoy poolside mimosas, drinks, and snacks post-run.
19th Annual Trot Against Poverty 5K
The Trot Against Poverty 5K begins Thanksgiving morning at Riverside Park in Vero Beach, Florida, with thousands of runners, joggers, walkers, families, and stroller-pushers expected. It is a professionally timed 5K, suitable for all ages and paces, accommodating those aiming for a personal best and those preferring a holiday walk before their meal.
The race raises funds for United Against Poverty, supporting its Member Share Grocery Programs. The nonprofit's mission is to assist individuals in poverty on their path to economic self-sufficiency. A notable tradition is Turkey Tom, a 25-foot inflatable turkey present before the race, offering participants a photo opportunity. Awards extend beyond standard overall and age-group categories, including prizes for Masters runners, non-binary overall winners, and the fastest stroller divisions.
2026 Vero Beach, FL unite4answers 5k Run/Walk and 1 Mile Walk
The unite4answers 5K run/walk at Vero Beach Airport is chip-timed. A free, untimed 1-mile walk is available for those seeking a shorter, simpler route. This event is organized by the Bobby Jones Chiari & Syringomyelia Foundation. A virtual 5K option allows participation and support for the cause remotely.
The race focuses on raising awareness and supporting research for Chiari malformation, syringomyelia, and related disorders. The organizing foundation, established in 2007, later licensed Bobby Jones’s name. It reports funding over $6 million for education and research. On race day, 5K participants receive shirts and finisher medals. Fundraisers are eligible for additional prizes, attracting timed runners, walkers, supporters, and families involved with the foundation’s mission.

About 5K races in Port St. Lucie
Port St. Lucie Base Miles
Port St. Lucie hosts 38 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
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.
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.
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.
