Pelican Run 5k

Pelican Run 5k takes place in Miami Beach, Florida, on May 1, 2027. There is one format, a 5K (3.1 miles) on the road, starting at 7:30 AM. No elevation gain is listed for the course.

An early start makes sense in South Florida in May, since the heat and humidity climb quickly through the morning. If you have been training indoors or in cooler conditions, plan on running a little slower than your usual 5K pace and drink well the day before rather than gulping water on the line. Flat, short and early, it is an approachable first race, and experienced runners can use it as a spring speed check before the summer really settles in.
