After running 6.2 miles, the first thing anyone wants is … a MARGARITA!  Well, at least at this 10K it is, because it’s part of the biggest Cinco De Mayo celebration with Fiesta De Mayo!  Don’t skip out on this event combo on Saturday May 3rd at Ocean Walk Shoppes! Fiesta De Mayo starts things off in Daytona Beach and is followed by the Magarita 10K Beach Run and the VIBE Stache Dash 5K Beach Run!

Fiesta De Mayo starts the party off from 5pm to 10pm with the biggest Cinco De Mayo party on the Fun Coast, complete with sombreros, piñatas, games, music, and the Margarita Challenge bartender drink contest. For those 21 and up, margarita passports make you the judge of the best margarita at Ocean Walk! Taste four full-sized margaritas at the four participating restaurants and vote for your favorite!

Race registration opens at 6pm for our Margarita 10K Beach Run, with the race kicking off at 7pm. Runners, walkers, and joggers of all skill levels are all welcome to participate in this chip-time race, taking place down the beautiful hard-packed beaches of Daytona Beach. Medals in 84 categories and two overall plaques will be awarded, as well as prizes for the best costumes!

Best yet, there are free t-shirts, and a social after the race. Every Margarita daring race participant receives a drink card for a free margarita, which can be upgraded for participation in the Fiesta de Mayo Margarita Challenge if desired.

10K a little far of a run for you?? Well fear not, check out the VIBE Stache Dash 5K on the same day at www.runsignup.com/stache
