2021 Tidewell Trot Takes Place This Month

The 5K and 1-mile run/walk, presented by Alltrust Insurance, benefits the Tidewell Foundation

The Tidewell Foundation will host the 2021 Tidewell Trot 5K and 1-Mile Run/Walk presented by Alltrust Insurance Thursday, Oct. 21 at Nathan Benderson Park (5851 Nathan Benderson Circle, Sarasota, FL 34235). 

Proceeds from the 2021 Tidewell Trot will benefit the Tidewell Foundation in its grants to Tidewell Hospice for charity care, grief support services, specialized veterans care, music therapy, telehealth and more for more than 10,000 people in our region annually — all at no cost to them. 

“We’re looking forward to gathering together at Nathan Benderson Park for a healthy and fun event that will help the Tidewell Foundation support the programs of Tidewell Hospice, the region’s only not-for-profit hospice,” said Tidewell Foundation President Debbie Mason. “After holding last year’s event virtually due to the pandemic, it’s going to be a real treat to see so many new and familiar faces in person again. Whether you have a personal connection to our mission or this is your first time connecting with us, know that your participation will go a long way toward brightening the lives of those who need it most.”

The 5K and 1-mile run/walk are both pet- and stroller-friendly. Participants will have plenty of water stations, upbeat music and enthusiastic volunteers cheering them on toward the finish line. The races will start at 6 p.m., following a vendor fair beginning at 5 p.m. All participants are invited to stick around following their race for an after-party and awards ceremony.
