Next Event:   January 17 & 18, 2026

Ready to race? Join us for the 11th Annual Shark Bite Half Marathon & 5K in beautiful New Smyrna Beach, Florida!
 

The Half Marathon is a certified road race—no sand running here. This full weekend event is created by runners, for runners, designed to deliver one of Florida’s premier race experiences.
 

Expect super-soft race shirts, standout finisher medals, unique handmade awards, and exclusive Top 10% Finisher Hats for both the Sunday Half and Saturday’s Feeding Frenzy 5K. Whether you're chasing a PR or chasing the bling, you’ll love what we have planned.
 

Race Weekend Highlights:

• Saturday: Kick things off at the Shark Bite Expo, followed by the Feeding Frenzy 5K at 8:00 AM through the charming Historic Canal Street District.

• Sunday: The Half Marathon starts at the iconic Flagler Ave Boardwalk, complete with a stunning sunrise send-off. The course features NSB’s best views—both causeways, waterfront scenery, and historic Flagler Ave and Canal Street.
   

NSB may be known as the Shark Bite Capital of the World, but don’t worry—you’ll stay on land! We celebrate sharks for the vital role they play in our oceans (check out Ocearch to learn more).
 

Come experience a top-notch Central Florida race weekend and discover why runners return year after year. Sign up today and take a bite out of the challenge!
