The First State Bank Key Largo Bridge Run will take place on Sunday, November 14th, 2021, with an estimated race start time of 6:30 AM EST for both the Half Marathon and 5K distance. The Start & Finish Line for the race will be located on the access road leading to Gilbert’s Resort and the course will run over the beautiful Jewfish Creek Bridge while overlooking Blackwater Sound in the Key Largo Bay. Our Half Marathon participants will get an added bonus of running next to the ocean as they approach and depart Manatee Bay.
“Returning to Gilbert’s Resort has been a blessing in disguise,” said HNO Productions President Henry Menendez. “Due to renovations at our home from the 2019 race, Rowell’s Waterfront Park, we will now reroute our runners to return to Gilbert’s Resort for the post-race festivities and continue providing a fun-filled experience with breathtaking views.”
A big “THANK YOU” to Ken Frost and Murray Franklin from Gilbert’s Resort for working with the Key Largo Bridge Run Management team in order to make this happen.
The race will be timed. All participants will receive a shirt and will be awarded with a medal after crossing the finish line. There will also be overall and age group awards.
