More than 3,000 runners and walkers are expected to turn out for the 14th Annual First Watch Sarasota Half Marathon, Relay, 10K and newly added 5K, October 19-20.  The addition of the 5K on Saturday creates Sarasota’s first-ever weekend race festival, which also includes a new fundraising partnership with Girls on the Run Greater Tampa Bay to support and grow its Sarasota and Manatee County after-school fitness and life-skills training programs. The new 5K course will start/finish at Five Points Park across the street from First Watch and Fit2Run in downtown Sarasota. The 5K is open to runners, walkers and push-rim wheelchairs. Strollers will also be allowed, starting at the back of the starting line corral.
