9PM
where The Sand Crab is a great way to get a little exercise under the stars on a beautiful Galveston Beach at night, get fed, have a few beers by a bon fire while listening to great music with other runners on a summer night. Both races will be chip timed and will start at 9PM. This 5K run is very walker friendly with a 2hr cut off. The 10K is walkable but will share the 2 hr cut off. 10K runners must be at the 3.1 mile turnaround within 1 hour. The 5K will also share the 2 hr cutoff. Start on beautiful Porretto Beach and run east for 3.1 or 1.55 miles (depending on the event) and turn and head back to the finish. The course will be lit with glow sticks and tiki torches
