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.
