Life;Story is Centerstone’s national walk/run for suicide prevention, bringing communities together across Illinois, Tennessee, and Florida for a day of hope, healing, and connection.
Participants of all ages and abilities are welcome—from seasoned runners to families with strollers, toddlers in the kids’ races, and pups on leashes. Whether you join us in person or virtually, you’ll be part of a meaningful experience that uplifts those impacted by suicide and celebrates the courage it takes to keep going.
The semicolon in Life;Story symbolizes a pause—not an ending—and reflects the belief that every person’s story has more ahead. This event carries that spirit forward with a supportive, energizing atmosphere filled with community vendors, mental health resources, free giveaways, and crowd-favorite perks like an event T‑shirt, finisher medal, and our curated Spotify playlist.
Proceeds from Life;Story help Centerstone provide mental health and addiction services for individuals with limited or no resources. By participating, you’re helping save lives, strengthening your community, and reminding others that their story matters—and that it’s far from over.
A $5 discount is available to 1st Responders using promo code, 1STRESPONDER5, and to Military/Veterans using promo code MILITARY5.

Kick off your race season at historic Fort De Soto Park with a 15K, 10K, or 5K – a distance for every runner and walker. As the sun rises, the start is underway! And when you finish then celebrate your effort and the start of Tampa Bay's running season with good food, great craft beer, and awesome music. Florida Road Races, "Where Running and Fun Meet"!
Fort De Soto Park has been named “America’s Top Beach” by TripAdvisor several times over the years citing a “spectacular combination of soft white sand, calm, clear water, and a laid-back atmosphere.”
Our "zero waste" 5k race will take place on Sept 20th 2026 at 7:30 am in scenic downtown Venice. The course will feature 2 loops on the city's famous canopy tree-lined road.
The race will start across from daiquiri deck on Venice ave and head west towards the beach. The finish will be at Daquiri deck and Centennial Park and include a post-race party with a beer garden, iced tea and coffee bar, vegan and non vegan breakfast burritos and pastries, live music and awards.
Our main goal is to raise environmental awareness in the running community (and non-running community) and promote environmental responsibility with event hosting.
For our race there will be no single-use plastic water bottles, no plastic goodie bags or other items that just end up in the landfill! The water stops on the course will be supplied with reusable silicone cups that will be collected, sanitized and reused after our event. We will also be using compostable parchment paper and napkins which will decompose in our compost bins 8-12 weeks. We will be collecting all leftover food waste as well so please be mindful of placing items in the correct bins. We will donate the unused food to our local Salvation Army.
You will receive a souvenir silicone finisher cup when you cross the finish line which you can then fill with water from our multi use water system and of course the beer garden, coffee and tea bar.
Our race shirts will be made from a combination of rPET (the type of plastic that can be recycled and provides a market for recycled plastic) from our local company, Gulf Breeze apparel!
There will be a bin to drop off your race bib as they will be reused and/or recycled.
The majority of our proceeds will be donated to a local environmental charity/non-profit called The Environmental Conservancy of North Port and surrounding areas. Their mission is to acquire neighborhood land parcels and designate them as protected green spaces to preserve and protect natural habitats. Learn more about their mission and how you can help at www.econorthport.com If you want to learn more about how to decrease your event's environmental footprint please visit our website www.enviroracing.com
Our post race party will feature live music by the Gazebo so feel free to bring lawn chairs and enjoy the music and beer after the race.
We will have a medal drop off bin for all those unwanted medals you have been collecting over the years as well as a bin for your used athletic shoes which will both be recycled and turned into something else :)

Just about all race bibs produced today are made from Tyvek, produced by DuPont. And Tyvek is made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), otherwise known as #2 plastic. And #2 plastic is one of the most commonly recycled materials.
We would like to collect the bibs at the end of the race so we will have a bin for that.
If you want to keep your bib for the memory that's OK.
No refunds and no Dogs on the course.
