Shark Bite 5K (Saturday Evening) - New Smyrna Beach, Florida - Running

The Shark Bite 5K (Saturday Evening) is a Running race in New Smyrna Beach, Florida consisting of a 5K.

Come join us for the Shark Bite Half Marathon & 5K. This is a Certified Road Race, not a beach run.

Race weekend starts at The Shark Bite Expo located at the amazing Brannon Center on Saturday. That evening we will host our new event: The Feeding Frenzy 5K. This race will kick off the weekend of races and get our Challenge Participants chomping at the bit for the BLING!!!!

Then the races will pick back up Sunday morning at the beautiful Flagler Ave Boardwalk where you can view a stunning sunrise before exploring the rest of the route. The course offers the best that New Smyrna Beach has to offer with breathtaking views throughout. Crossing both causeways (bridges) giving wonderful views of the intracoastal waterway and ocean, and then meandering through both of NSB's historic downtown districts: Flagler Ave and Canal St.

Our Mission is to make the Shark Bite Half Marathon one of the premier half marathons in the state of Florida. Yes, that is the whole state, not just New Smyrna Beach, not just Volusia County. We are striving to bring the best overall race experience; super soft race t-shirt, the best Finisher medals around, awesome awards, Top 10% Finisher Hats in half (only half marathon in Florida to do this), and much much more.

New Smyrna Beach is known for many things: Orlando's Beach, Pro Surfers, Spring Break but nothing is as well known as its distinction of the SHARK BITE CAPITAL of the WORLD. Not to worry, we aren't making you swim (although it isn't a bad option to cool off after the event).

Come enjoy a top notch Central Florida Half Marathon.
