What's Happening PRA!
Promo Code!
Our mission...
... is to promote, support and develop running and racing along the Northern Gulf Coast. Our objective is to provide information, education, training, social and sporting events for competitive and noncompetitive runners and walkers of all ages, races, genders, and abilities. The Pensacola Runners Association grant program has been able to further our mission! It has been such a pleasure to be able to support and boost local organizations such as the
Golden Elite Track and Field Club who was able to use the grant towards the purchase of new equipment.
For more information on our grant program, visit our
website!
Thank you Pensacola Runners Association for your continued support since 2016 and awarding us with the $1300 grant earlier in the season to purchase new equipment

One of the premier destination road races in the Southeast, the Pensacola Beach Run Half Marathon & 10k/5k, a Pensacola Runners Association event, features a half marathon and a "pick your distance" 10k/5k, meaning participants do not have to decide whether to run the 10k or the 5k until they are out on the course! Run along a fast and flat race route along the shoreline of the Gulf of Mexico here along the Gulf Islands National Seashore in the Florida panhandle area, the Pensacola Beach Run Half Marathon is open to both runners and walkers and takes participants along this city's scenic waterfront along paved roads between the Gulf of Mexico and the Santa Rosa Sound.
