Before the runners arrive, the real MVPs are already hard at work.

A massive thank you to the crew setting up every mile, sign, barricade, cone, banner, speaker and detail that makes race day possible. This event takes a village and we’ve got the best one.

We appreciate you!

Friendly reminder!

Tomorrow’s forecast:
- 18,000+ runners
- A few road closures
- Lots of cheering and community fun

The annual Jacksonville tradition returns where everyone learns new routes and shortcuts 😬 😅

Check these road closures before heading out and pay attention to the traffic alert signs put out along the course.

Plan ahead and stay safe out there!
