If you haven't signed up already, there is still time to enter the 12th Annual St. Andrews Mardi Gras 5k run/walk and 1 mile family fun run taking place on Saturday morning (February 11, 2010 at 8am). Online registration closes at 9pm on Thursday February 9th, but participants can register in person on Saturday morning.

The event begins and ends at the St. Andrews Civic Club next to the Oaks by the Bay Park near the St. Andrews Marina. The course follows a scenic route along St. Andrew's Bay.

If you have been training since you set those New Year's goals, the 5k is a flat-and-fast course that will surely boost your fitness ego. If you're just getting started, consider the mile walk. And don't forget to stick around for the post-race Mardi Gras parade!
