Race Information
Who’s YOUR superhero…a doctor, a nurse, a teacher, a local police officer, a military veteran, a cancer survivor? Everyone has at least one favorite hero, so grab your cape and come run with other participants! You'll run on a certified 5K and 8K course on River Road and have a gorgeous view of the St. Johns River.
The 5K/8K Superhero Run is the perfect race for serious runners looking to improve times (a great training run for the Gate River Run) and for runners looking for a FUN event with live music, plenty of hero costumes, and a lively runner’s village. All 5K/8K participants will receive superhero shirts and a custom-designed finisher medal at the finish line.
