EARLY PACKET PICK UP: THURS., JAN. 23 - 4.30PM TO 6.30PM NEW BALANCE UNIVERSITY 315 N. CATTLEMEN RD., SARASOTA

The Scrub Jay 5K is a course designed with the road-runners in mind. There is still the beauty and nature of Oscar Scherer Park on mostly hard packed surfaces but there are still some tree roots and a section on the trails and a little bit of the dreaded "sugar sand." You will begin near the Nature Center and travel the length of the main entrance road just about to the entrance before turning onto the Lester Finley trail and South Creek Nature Trail on mostly prepared-surface park trails including crushed shell and paver paths then onto earthen trails for the last 3/4 mile with only a very small sandy area.

The Scrub Jay Scramble 10K is a course on the trails, sugar-sand included, with some ups and downs using recently created pedestrian underpasses and overpasses. Designed by trail runners for trail runners using the parks' features to challenge even experienced trail runners. Check out the detailed description and map of the Scrub Jay Scramble 10K.

Your registration includes custom silver anniversary finisher's medal for all finishers and a post-race featuring hot dogs (veggie dogs on request), bananas and other snacks. Participants will receive a snazzy tech race shirt locally designed and printed by Gulf Breeze Apparel as long as supplies last.*

*NOTE: Race shirts will be ordered approximately three weeks before race day to have them ready in time. At that time all sizes will be in the online inventory and available only while supplies last. We do this to ensure that participants who register early will be sure to get the shirt size they select during registration. Any race shirts not picked up by the close of packet pick up race morning will be forfeited and available to swap sizes or for those who may not have had shirt inventory available at the time they registered.
