I've run the double bridge 15k for the last 3 years, and it continues to be my favorite race! It's a point to point that starts in downtown Pensacola right by the bay and ends at Pensacola beach. The post race party is always huge and the swag is phenomenal! Publix is a big sponsor and there's always tons of snacks to grab, free massages, & awesome Headsweat visors. The bridges are the only inclines and the last one is short and steep, but it's also right before the finish, so it's great for a final kick. The run is gorgeous and the weather is usually chilly, but it never disappoints! The medals are usually awesome, too, and often feature a spinning beach ball just like the Pensacola beach water tower.

I completed the Keys 100 relay in 2016 with a team of 6, and it was the coolest race experience I've ever had! The Keys already have their own flavor & attitude, and this race brings it. The race is one giant party that covers the streets of the keys in honking vans full of runners. The heat is pretty awful, but Bob Becker said he had no intention of making the race easy. They do a really great job of laying out specific instructions for team exchange points, & the marshals are always easy to spot and there for help.

I'm an Auburn girl, so obviously this race has a lot of appeal to me. Being an Auburn fan and a lover of college football, I was sold the moment I heard about this race. Getting to run across the field and finish on the 50 yard line was a really unique draw of the race and made up for some of the things I thought the race lacked. There were virtually no spectators for this race and the course ended up being pretty rural until around mile 10 or so, where you end up running around campus. The aid stations were adequate but not necessarily abundant, but I wouldn't expect a lot from a small race with few volunteers. Overall, the experience was worth it to me personally, but I'm not sure someone who isn't an Auburn fan would care for it!
