Either way, everyone will enjoy this run along downtown Safety Harbor, beginning and ending at the City Marina on a groovy course. Walkers and strollers are welcome, but MUST start behind the runners. *Hippie threads highly encouraged!* (Because you might just be groovy enough to win the costume contest!) *Want to run with a team?* Just choose what type - Hippie Friends or Corporate Teams.
