The Skyway 10K is set to resume next year in person. Here’s what you need to know
After going to a virtual format in 2021, the fifth annual Skyway 10K is scheduled to resume in person next year.
Event organizers announced in a press release the race is slated for Sunday, March 6, 2022.
Though, the race across the Skyway Bridge in St. Petersburg, Florida, doesn’t take place for five months, registration is limited and begins soon. Starting Oct. 18, runners can register on Skyway10K.com under a lottery system. That system closes Oct. 24 at 11:59 p.m. and the lottery winners will get notified by Oct. 28, the news release said.
Participants have to arrive at Tropicana Field, home to the defending American League champion Tampa Bay Rays, where they’ll be transported by buses to the south end of the Skyway Bridge. Once runners complete the 10K to the north side of the bridge, they’ll board buses for transport back to Tropicana Field.
The general admission registration cost is $80 per person and is non-refundable. A VIP registration fee costs $300 per person and includes extras such as free food and drinks, VIP restrooms, a gaming area, and VIP swag at the VIP tent throughout race weekend, according to the release.
