Orange Beach Events, Flora Bama Race

Saturday, March 16th, 2024 marked the 11th Annual Beach Run/Walk for America's Warriors. This race was created by Flora-Bama Co-Owner and former Army Ranger, Cameron Price, whose dream is to eventually get to a full marathon on the sand. Currently, the race is 100% on the sand with three options to participate. Registrants can sign up for the half marathon, 5K run or 5K walk. All three begin and end on the sand behind Flora-Bama with the half marathon running towards Florida and the 5k run/walk going into Alabama. Hundreds of people came out to join in on the race festivities and help support Special Operations Warrior Foundation. For this race, 100% of race registration fees are donated back to SOWF.
