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.

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 team member 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.
Pre-race cancellations for extenuating circumstances will be dealt with on a case by case basis. All cancellations are subject to a $5 service fee per transaction, as well as the original processing fee paid. All requests for cancellations and refunds must be received at least 14 days prior to race day to be considered. Thank you for understanding.
