2018 Discover Caladesi Island 10 Mile Beach and Trail Race; 5K Beach Race

The West Florida Y Runners Club will host another Discover Caladesi Island race event Saturday, February 17, 2018.

I ran the last one in December 2016 and absolutely loved it. The scenery is beautiful, and the sand and trails were a true challenge.

The 2018 handmade medals by Mollydots are charming and unique. (See photo.)

This year's race falls in the middle of half marathon season — making it a great goal race or training run.
