March 11 | 7:45-11AM
Run. Jog. Roll. Stroll.
Lace up your shoes and start stretching. 1st Place Sports is putting on the Run Wild 5K on Saturday, March 11th, and we’re going to be running along the trails and through the neighborhoods of Wildlight. And that’s not all that’s taking place at the race. Every registered participant gets a Dri-fit shirt, medal and gift bag. And there will be a Kids’ Zone, warm up with the Wildlight Y, assessments by UF Rehab, massages by Massage Theory, breakfast food trucks, a fruit stand, a scavenger hunt and—because you’ll have worked up a thirst—a free beer from SJ Brewing Company for all racers 21+.

We’re adding some fun to the run
For Families
There’s a 1-mile fun run. And then there’s just plain fun: like carnival rides and games in the Kids’ Zone. A balloon artist making special creations. And a scavenger hunt that will lead you on an adventure through Wildlight.
For Everyone
Enjoy pre- or post-race eats, with food (and coffee) trucks. Grab a healthy (and free) snack at the fruit stand. Stop by the vendor marketplace. And commemorate the morning at our selfie station (post your pic on our instagram!)
For The Runners
Before you start, warm up with the Wildlight YMCA. Then hit your mark and go. Once you cross the finish line, get an assessment done by UF Rehab and a massage by Massage Theory. (And don’t forget to grab your goodie bag and even good-ier free beer!)
