480 N Indian River Drive, Fort Pierce FL
Saturday, March 22nd, 2025
2025 marks the 17th Annual Manatee Center 5K! This Run with a View gets bigger and better every year, and this year, we're including a ONE-MILE route again!
The 5K route is a USATF certified course #FL11040EBM and is timed by TIMED EVENTS. Overall 5K winners, Masters, and top three M/F in all age groups (grouped by 10 years) will receive awards.
The first 200 walkers and runners to sign up are guaranteed to receive beautiful finisher's medals to commemorate your accomplishment. All 5K registrants receive a runner's goody bag and a Tech shirt!
ALSO: Kids 15 and under register for the 5k for only $25.
The one-mile route follows the 5K route but turns toward the beautiful Indian River Lagoon before crossing over Seaway Drive Bridge. This route is untimed and there will not be awards, but all registrants will receive tickets to the very popular runners drawing.
This race is a fundraiser for the Treasure Coast Manatee Foundation. All proceeds stay local and are dedicated to enhancing environmental education through the Manatee Center, focusing on conservation and preservation of the Indian River Lagoon, an estuary of national significance, marine life within the lagoon, and the surrounding ecosystems.
The Treasure Coast Manatee Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) organization established to support and enhance environmental awareness, education, conservation, and stewardship of endangered species and natural resources fulfilling its mission through the Manatee Center.
As always, THANK YOU for your support and we look forward to seeing you on race day.
