The Islamorada race weekend includes several distances in one Upper Keys event: a Sunday half marathon and 10K, plus Saturday’s Rumrunner 5K/10K and Beach N’ Beer Mile. The main Islamorada races start early in the morning, while the shorter Saturday races give the weekend a more casual, party-heavy shape.
The series is in its 12th annual running and is described by organizers as the largest event in the Upper Keys. It draws runners to Islamorada for more than a single start line, with road races, island time, and post-race parties all part of the weekend. The Beach N’ Beer Mile adds a distinctive twist, shaping the schedule around the Keys’ laid-back bar-and-beach culture.
