Proceeds from the Race
Proceeds from the race will help support our next generation through Bayside College!
Bayside College began in 2012 as a ministry training program and, in 2017, partnered with Southeastern University to offer accredited undergraduate and graduate degrees alongside leadership training. Now the largest extension site of Southeastern with approximately 300 students, Bayside offers 15 undergraduate and 5 graduate degrees. In a time when many students are choosing online or alternative education, Bayside continues to grow by offering a unique experience that combines academic excellence, leadership development, and a strong sense of community. Students benefit from small, interactive classes designed to support Gen Z learners and a four-year leadership program that emphasizes both personal character and practical competency in areas like communication, conflict resolution, and team building.
In addition to classroom learning, Bayside students earn 24 credit hours through hands-on leadership experience in ministry areas and businesses. Each semester includes a 3-credit internship tailored to their field of study, allowing them to succeed, fail, and grow in a safe environment. Every student is part of a year-long team that builds lifelong relationships while tackling challenges together. Currently, 35% of students are from out-of-town or out-of-state areas and need housing to fully engage in the college experience. Expanding affordable and reliable student housing is essential for Bayside to continue equipping the next generation of Christian leaders with the tools they need to make a Kingdom impact in ministry and the marketplace.

Are Dogs/Strollers Allowed?
Yes! If you have a dog or a stroller, please start in the back of the start corral. Children in strollers during the 5K do not need to be registered.
My Shirt Doesn't Fit, May I Exchange It?
We give everyone the shirt size they registered for - No Exceptions. If you would prefer a different size, please bring your shirt to the orange Big Bill Foundation tent and after everyone else has picked up, you may exchange for any other available size.
Where Should I Park?
The Lorraine Entrance by the South Parking Lot is CLOSED for the race. Please enter the parking lot through the entrance on State Rd 64. Parking will be on the north side of the church building.
Participant safety is our number one priority, so please make sure to listen to all announcements made by the DJ and race staff. Please keep headphones at low volume for your safety and that of those around you. If you have a medical emergency, please notify a Fit2Time Race Management team member, Bayside Community Church Leader, or Volunteer immediately.
We value runner safety. In the event of severe weather conditions, the director(s) reserve the right to cancel the race for the safety of its participants. Registrations cancelled due to inclement weather will not be refunded, but instead used to cover event costs, with the balance being treated as a charitable donation to the event beneficiary.
Conditions that may result in event cancellation include (but are not limited to): lightning, high winds, flooding, fires, and other acts of God.
