We’re Leading the 2019 Pensacola Double Bridge Run! ~ Southern Vacation Rentals
Lace up your running shoes and get ready to hit the pavement – the 2019 Pensacola Double Bridge Run is right around the corner! Over 3,000 people will flock to Pensacola on February 2nd to run across this beautiful stretch of the Gulf Coast! Also known as the “Race to the Beach,” the Pensacola Double Bridge Run is one of the premier 15K races in the country. Registration is open to the public – register for the race today here, as day-of registration will not be available! For more information about the race, deals from Southern, and even a contest for a free vacation, read on below!
The run consists of a 15K and a 5K depending on your preference. If you choose to run the 15K, then you are certainly treating yourself to some of the best views around! Begin in Downtown Pensacola and wind your way through the historic district and picturesque Bayfront Parkway. Then, run over the Pensacola Bay Bridge to make your way into Gulf Breeze and finally onto Pensacola Beach. Or, choose the 5K and make your way through Gulf Breeze to Pensacola Beach onto Santa Rosa Island and the National Seashore.
The race expo and packet pickup take place at the Hilton Pensacola Beach Gulf Front Conference Center on January 31st from 3-7 PM, and February 1st from 12-7 PM. Pick up your packet and browse over 30 vendor booths! In addition, you’ll also score a pre-race dinner provided by Hemingway’s. The Pensacola Beach restaurant is offering complimentary meals for participants. Guests can also enjoy a meal for just $5 at the door.
Meanwhile, Southern is thrilled to once again sponsor the 2019 Pensacola Double Bridge Run. We’re offering 15% off any Pensacola Beach, Florida vacation rental when you stay between January 31 and February 9. We have tons of incredible options all across the beach; check out our inventory on Pensacola Beach here! We’re big fans of Emerald Isle on Pensacola Beach; this luxury high-rise condo, pictured above, rests right on the sugar white sands. Sleeping anywhere from 4-8 guests in 2-3 bedroom vacation rentals, you’ll have a fabulous time relaxing before and after the race. Stretch out on your private balcony as you breathe in the fresh air or head down to the beach and rest your tired toes in the sand.
In the meantime, do you love contests as much as we do? We hope so! When you choose to “run with a view,” you can also win a “room with a view!” That’s right; we’re giving away a free vacation! Simply snap your favorite “Run with a View” photo while you’re training for the event and submit it to this giveaway page. You can submit a different photo each day and get five additional entry for each friend or family member who participates! Check back on our Facebook page on Monday, February 4th to find out if you’re the lucky winner! Good luck!
