Manatee Center 5K

Manatee Center 5K, One-Mile, & Kids Run takes place in Fort Pierce, Florida, along the Indian River Lagoon. The event offers three distances: a USATF-certified 5K (timed by Second Wind Timing), a One-Mile route (untimed), and a Kids Run. The 5K uses a scenic course marketed as “The Run with a View,” with the One-Mile route following the 5K toward the lagoon and crossing Seaway Drive Bridge.

This family-friendly fundraiser benefits the Friends of the Manatee Center and supports environmental education and conservation. Perks include a finisher medal for the first 250 registrants, plus a tech shirt and runner’s goody bag. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
