Show your support for our local law enforcement, fire fighters, military and border patrol by participating in the Run the Line In Support - 5 Mile Challenge on South Padre Island. We’ll run up and down the Gulf Blvd pedestrian/bike lane (the line) for a total of 5 miles. For this challenge you’ll earn an awesome custom designed lapel pin designed and made right here in the Great State of Texas and soft-tek blend shirt to show your support law enforcement, fire fighters, military and border patrol, along with a specialty drink from the Coco Beach Hotel beach club.
Because of the location and parking limitations we are spreading this event over TWO Saturdays, each limited to ONLY 175 participant slots each Saturday. The event will be held the mornings of Saturday, August 21st and Saturday, August 28th starting and ending at Coco Beach Hotel at 7:10 am.
THE DETAILS:
It's a 5 Mile Challenge starting and ending at Coco Beach Hotel with two dates to choose from... Saturday, August 21st and 28th. The run/walk starts at Coco Beach Hotel with everyone first heading to the North end of Gulf Blvd and then turning around to head to the South end of Gulf Blvd. for a second turnaround back to finish at Coco Beach Hotel. The entire run is on asphalt to be run within the Gulf Blvd Pedestrian/Bike lane. This is an untimed fun run/walk.
This is a CUP-LESS run. In an effort to reduce waste and littering, we will NOT be using those tiny paper cups at our water stops. Bring your own cup or water bottle. There will be at least two water refill stations along the route. With the turnarounds, this will allow you to refill at the start, 1.9 miles, 3.8 miles and at the finish 5 miles.
After the run, you can remit your drink ticket for a drink provided by the Coco Beach Hotel - Beach Club. You can remit for a mimosa, screw driver or non-alcoholic drink.
