SPRR Race Series Changes - Due to an error there have been a couple of schedule changes for the remaining SPRR Race Series events.  The third and final SPRR Beach Series Race, run on August 27th, will be the next scoring event.  This takes the place of a nonexistent race that was previously believed to be in August.  Our September race will be the Hillsborough Sheriff Ranch 5K Run run on September 11th.  The Rattlesnake Run 5 Miler on October 16th will be the following race.  And finally, a November race will take place but is yet to be decided.  We will get you that information as soon as it is finalized.

Get Involved With the Women's Running Magazine Half Marathon - For anyone who was at last year's Women's Running Magazine Half Marathon and 5K you know what a huge and positive success it was.  It's safe to say that this year's event will even trump that.  On Sunday, November 21st, thousands of women will once again toe the starting line in downtown St. Petersburg to run the 2nd Annual Half Marathon or 5K.  With such positive feedback and growing participation, we too at the SPRR need our volunteer numbers to grow.  Please consider coming out for the morning and helping in one of our numerous volunteer areas.  For more information on volunteering for this opportunity please contact Eric Sager or for more information on running in this event please visit the Women's Running Magazine Website and search under the Races tab on the left side of the page.
