Sandy Claws Beach Run

The 49th Annual Sandy Claws Beach Run, hosted by Sarasota County Parks and Friends of Sarasota County Parks, is a celebrated event in the local running community. Participants can choose between a 5K run for adults and youth, and a 1-mile fun run/walk suitable for all ages, all set against the picturesque backdrop of Siesta Beach. The event features chip-timed races, finisher medals, and awards for top finishers in various age categories.

Proceeds support the "Summer in the Parks" Adopt-A-Camper scholarship fund, making it a meaningful occasion for both participants and the community. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
