Experience the beauty of coastal Texas at the 4th Annual Flynn’s Beach Run, set to take place on October 24, 2026. This year's edition features races for all ages and abilities: a scenic 5K run along the Gulf Coast, an invigorating 10K that challenges both body and spirit, and a Family Fun Walk/Run of one mile. All events start at Horace Caldwell Pier in Port Aransas, with participants enjoying breathtaking ocean views as they cross the finish line. Registration opens early to ensure you get your preferred shirt size; secure yours by October 11th for discounted rates starting at $25 for the 5K and $30 for the 10K. For young runners aged 17 and under, entry is just $20 regardless of distance. Day-of registration comes with a slight premium, adding $10 to each race price. The event kicks off bright and early on Saturday morning at 8:00 AM, where participants will be greeted by the warm sunrise over the Gulf waters. Packet pickup and late registrations are available both Friday from 8:30 to 4 p.m. at the Port Aransas Welcome Center (403 W Cotter Ave), or starting at 7 a.m. on race day. Competitors can expect chip timing for accurate results, along with age group awards that celebrate runners across all categories—divided by gender and decade from ages 0 to 80+. The event not only promises an exhilarating run but also supports the Port Aransas Independent School District Cross Country Team and local sustainability initiatives. Join us on this memorable day as we come together in celebration of community, fitness, and nature’s splendor.
