Fools Day 5k is a professionally-timed race for participants of all ages and abilities.
Put on a pair of novelty glasses (included with registration) and “Be a Blessing in Disguise” for the 53,957 households in St. Lucie County that earn less than what it costs to afford the basic necessities.
Join friends and neighbors to run, jog or walk through a unforgettable 3.1 mile course filled with fun surprises. In addition to helping raise the crucial funds that fuel our mission, your participation will help shine a light on the dark and demoralizing cycle of poverty in St. Lucie County.
The goal of this community-based event is to raise funds and awareness for United Against Poverty of St. Lucie County, a nonprofit dedicated to inspiring and empowering people living in poverty to lift themselves and their families to economic self-sufficiency.
The Fool’s Day 5K kicks off at Causeway Cove, sending runners out toward Seaway Drive and under the Seaway Drive Bridge. From there, you’ll enjoy scenic views along the beautiful inlet before making your way past the St. Lucie County Aquarium. The course continues down Seaway Drive, crossing over into a peaceful neighborhood before looping back along the opposite side of Seaway Drive. Finally, you’ll head back to Causeway Cove to cross the finish line in style!
