We want YOU at the Fourth Annual Race the Tortoise 5K Run/Walk (3.1 miles) to be held at OʼLeno State Park on March 3, 2012 at 8:00 a.m. This event is hosted by Friends of OʼLeno, Inc.

The proceeds from the race will help provide for the creatures in the Park’s Nature Center and add to the funds needed to buy an audio/visual system for the Park’s Dining Hall.

This is an out and back certified race course (FL09012EBM) with mile markers. It is on the Park’s main road which is both scenic and paved. The start and finish lines are near the main parking area approximately 1.5 miles from the Park’s entrance.

This is a kid and family-friendly running and walking event promoting a healthy life style and the beauty of OʼLeno State Park. Some participants will be racing for prize money and awards, to achieve a personal best or to complete their first running event. Whether you run fast, slow, or walk, come out and challenge yourself to Race the Tortoise. All levels of ability welcome.

“Care for your heart…take part.”
