| Start -
Mile 1 |
We start next to Coachman Park,
heading north and then east up a gentle 25 foot hill, turning
south on Osceola Avenue past Clearwater City Hall to the
Pinellas County Courthouse, west onto the approach to the
majestic Clearwater Memorial Bridge, which rises to 74' over
the water, providing a breath-taking view of Clearwater Beach in front
of you and the Intracoastal Waterway on either side. |
|
Miles
2 - 4 |
You will run down the Clearwater
Memorial Bridge onto the manicured Clearwater Causeway past
Island Estates and onto Clearwater Beach, around the circle
and south onto Gulfview Way, along the award-winning public
beach to Clearwater Pass Bridge, and south on Gulf Boulevard. |
|
Miles
5 - 8 |
The course
turns into Sand Key Park to pick up some needed mileage,
running along the access road into the main parking
lot for the public beaches. After exiting Sand Key
Park, you will turn south back onto Gulf Boulevard
for about a mile or so through the condo canyons
of Sand Key, before the turn-around point near the
Belleair Beach City Limits |
|
Miles
9 - 13 |
Since the race is essentially
an out-and-back course, you will return to the finish line
north along Gulf Boulevard, back over the Clearwater Pass
Bridge, back along Gulfview Boulevard, around the circle
and back onto Clearwater Causeway. However, this time, you
will run on the south side of the causeway along a paved
trail away from the vehicular traffic. Your final challenge
will be the ascent up Clearwater Memorial Bridge, running
down the opposite side to the "double-helix" ramp leading
to Clearwater's waterfront. |
|
| Finish |
The stretch to the finish
line is along the Intracoastal Waterway back to Coachman
Park, where your finisher's medal awaits you, along with
cheering spectators and plenty of food and beverage. Congratulations! |
