Join us for Hot Laps sponsored by On and Fit2Run, The Runner’s Superstore in honor of
Hispanic Heritage Month. This relay race takes it back to the streets. Teams of four race to complete as many laps as they can in 45 minutes. The top five teams with the most laps progress to a final round where the fastest laps win.
Relay teams are mixed gendered and created by racers before they sign up. Each team should at a minimum have one member of the opposite gender (2 girls/2 guys, 3 girls/1 guy, etc.). Retrieve team bibs and baton on race day at the event registration table. (If you do not have a team to sign up with, one will be assigned on race day. Please plan on picking up your bib at the registration table to be assigned a team.)
Hot Laps takes inspiration from the motor racing world where cars compete on fixed courses to complete as many laps in a set time.
Similar to the world of car racing, Hot Laps require teamwork. Mixed gendered teams will compete on an unsanctioned course where each member has to exchange in a predetermined zone. To keep track of laps, after the baton is passed, each runner will receive a marker from their designated volunteer. At the 45 minute mark, teams will add up their marks and we will advance the teams with the most laps to the final round.
ALL PARTICIPANTS RECEIVE INVITATION TO AFTER PARTY WITH FOOD, DRINKS, AND ENTERTAINMENT.

Honoring the memory of Big Bill Robinson, the co-founder of Fit2Run, and father of President Parks Robinson, The Big Bill Foundation was founded in 2020.
Bill Robinson, who partnered with Manatee County in the late 2000s to turn 487 acres of rehabilitated farmland into the hiking trails and mangrove habitats in northwest Bradenton now known as Robinson Preserve, passed in 2020, following a hard-fought battle with leukemia at the age of 70. The Big Bill Foundation was created to honor the legacy of Bill, who loved running, surfing, going for long walks outdoors, and spending time with his family.
Bill was one of the original board members of the Suncoast Aquatic Nature Center Associates, SANCA (currently Nathan Benderson Park Conservancy), and served as chairman from 2014–18. He dedicated countless hours of service to make SANCA and Nathan Benderson Park Conservancy a success.
Bill’s passion for sports, the community and his family was evident to anyone who spent time with him. Bill Robinson was a great leader and mentor, who had a natural gift to inspire and motivate.
The Big Bill Foundation has the privilege of providing scholarships to those who have survived or are currently battling childhood cancer. To date, over $75,000 in scholarships have helped change the lives of those in need.

How exactly does it work?
Hot Laps is a minimal rules relay. As long as you stay on the course, everyone runs once, and you hand off the baton in the exchange zone, you should be good to go. You can run as many laps you want before handing the baton off to your teammate--whether that be 1 or 30, it doesn't matter.
Do I have to have a complete team before signing up?
No! If you don't have a complete team, we will match you with individuals or duos that are looking for a team
What will the prizes be?
1st Place: (4)Head to Toe On Kits and (4)$100 Fit2Run giftcards
2nd Place: (4)Waist Paks and (4)$50 Fit2Run giftcards
3rd Place: (4) On Hats and (4)$25 Fit2Run giftcards
