Dunedin Veteran’s Day 5K, Kids Dash, & Pancake Breakfast

For details, visit 727canrace.com

Join us in the best city in Florida on Saturday November 12, 2022 for for the best Veterans Day run walk in Florida. The City of Dunedin has partnered with Finish Lines For Scholarships to bring you a day that will celebrate veterans from across the USA! 

The finishers medals are outstanding and a great way to commemorate all those who have served our great nation. At 8:15 a.m. race management will call all children and parents out to the Pinellas Trail for a kid’s dash. Children are separated by size and they are never out of sight for this adorable run. This run is stroller friendly and fully paved.

All 5K participants will receive the American themed promotional event shirt, a finisher’s medal and pancake breakfast offered by either the VFW or the American Legion (we are still finalizing the details).

This is a co-sponsored event with the City of Dunedin and Finish Lines For Scholarships 501c3. Law enforcement and staff will be positioned at each intersection along the fully paved Pinellas trail in an out and back course from the Hale Center heading north. Each of you will be running or walking through the most beautiful part of North Pinellas in downtown Dunedin, Florida.

Registration will be limited to 300 participants and those who are military, either serving currently or who have served in the past, should send a text for a discount code to 727-CAN-RACE prior to completing online registration as there are no refunds after registrations have been processed.

For questions please contact Suzanne at XanaduRaceManagement@gmail.com or text 727-CAN-RACE.
