Wellington 10 Miler and Tower Challenge

The Wellington 5k, 10 Miler and Tower Challenge takes place at Tiger Shark Cove Park in Wellington, Florida. The event features a 5k, a 10 Miler, a 10 Miler Tower Challenge, and a Kids Mile. The 5k runs along Greenbrier Boulevard, while the 10 Miler weaves through the Wellington Environmental Preserve (Marjory Stoneman Douglas Everglades Habitat) on Flying Cow Road, with a mix of paved paths, shell rock roads and boardwalks through wetlands.

The Tower Challenge adds a unique twist by having runners ascend and descend a five-story tower during the 10 Miler. In its 20th year, proceeds benefit Kids Cancer Foundation and other local charities; it’s billed as a fall tune-up race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
