Here are some key things you should know about your participation in the Palmas del Mar AMGEN Turkey Dash 5k and 1-Mile Fun Run:
- No bikes, blades or golf carts are allowed on the course. Strollers are permitted only for the 1 Mile Family Walk/Run.
- Packet pick-up and registration is at the Palmas Academy from 2:30p-4p on Friday, November 14th.
- Race Day registration is permitted, but not encouraged due to crowds. It will close at 8:45a for the 5k, and 9:15a for the 1-Mile.
PARKING:
- We suggest you enter Palmas through the back gate, near Buena Vista
- There will be designated parking just before you enter the back Palmas gate, and behind the Palmas Academy.
THE COURSE:
- The Start for both races is in front of the Palmas Equestrian Center, just behind the school. Make sure you plan a few extra minutes for the short warm-up jog up there!
- Unless routed otherwise, always remain on the golf cart path
- There will be one water station halfway through the 5k course, just before Palmas Drive, and more refreshments at the finish for everyone. Please bring or carry anything additional you may need.
Most importantly, prepare to have fun! We are looking forward to seeing you on the 15th. The event goes on rain or shine, as we are not afraid of a passing tropical shower!
