This is one of the few evening races in the entire state, always attracting top runners as they prepare for the Beach2Beacon on the following weekend. The Ocean Park 5K winds through towering pines and along the beach before finishing in the town square in front of hundreds of enthusiastic supporters. There will be cash prizes for breaking the course records of 15:24 for men and 17:32 for women.
