Lace Up Your Running Shoes For The Paradise Coast Half Marathon & 5k!

February 3rd, 2020 by

5k

At the start of 2020, many of us said we wanted to participate in more activities in the area, get some more exercise, and meet new people. If these goals were on your resolution list, we’ve got great news for you! You can check all three off when you make plans to attend the Paradise Coast Half Marathon & 5k Run!

As we all know, any type of exercise is good for our bodies. As the winter ends and we want to get out of the house and make new experiences for the decade, it requires getting out of our comfort zone and living a little. Luckily, you have a great chance to support a good cause and meet some of your goals when you participate in this fun event!

The Paradise Coast Half Marathon & 5k event will take place on Sunday, February 16 from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at the North Collier Regional Park – Rec Plex located in Naples, Florida 34109. If you live in Naples or you’re simply visiting the area, you’re going to want to participate. Whether you’re competitive or simply want to stretch your muscles, consider signing up today!

About the Trail

The exciting trail that you will take will loop through the woods, swirl around lakes and ponds, and take you by the first-class soccer and softball fields at the Sun and Fun Lagoon. Due to the nature of the course, you will be able to see bystanders throughout the entire run. If you have family watching from the sidelines, you will have plenty of opportunities to see them cheer you on as you complete your run. This natural course is a great way to relax and meditate!
