This annual charity race fundraiser supports the SEASIDE SCHOOL FOUNDATION™ and encompasses an entire weekend of activities from the Taste of the Race culinary event as the official Race Weekend kick-off party to Race Day that welcomes thousands of runners from around the globe. Participation and support of the annual fundraiser provides middle school and high school students in Walton County, Florida the opportunity to participate in unique learning experiences not typically found in public education.

THE SEASIDE SCHOOL™ - one of the oldest operating public charter school in Florida and comprised of SEASIDE NEIGHBORHOOD SCHOOL™ in Seaside, Florida and Seacoast Collegiate High School located on the nearby campus of Northwest Florida State College South Walton Center - was founded in 1996 with the simple goal of creating a school to address the need for a better middle school education in Walton County. Today, SEASIDE SCHOOL™ serves more than 600 students across the two school campuses serving grades 5th through 12th and ranks in the top 1% of all public schools academically based on the Florida Department of Education School Grade Program.
