I Pink I Can Run

Join us for the 10th Annual Bloody Mary 5K Run and Walk at Tacky Jacks in Gulf Shores on Saturday, August 30th at 7:30 am. This annual event is on flat and fast city streets. If you want to earn a PR or just have fun, THIS is the Labor Day weekend event you want to do.

This race is the final race in the Run the Coast Summer series. There are cash prizes for the top 3 male and female runners in the series, based on the points system over the 3 races. Labor Day weekend also kicks off football season and a race tradition is showing your team spirit. We will have our traditional Team Spirit Awards, so wear your team colors and be eligible for prizes.

Let's celebrate and support our favorite men!

This is our 13th annual local event to raise awareness to protect the men in our lives and donate to the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF), the leading philanthropic organization funding and accelerating research globally. We will donate 100% of the proceeds to the PCF. The PCF has helped build a global research enterprise of nearly $10 billion and have funded more than 2,000 programs at more than 200 research centers in 18 countries since inception in 1993. Until there is a cure for prostate cancer, we need to help the people battling the disease, so let’s put our feet together and Run/Walk for a Cure!!
