“The Fit Foodie is more than a race, it’s a celebration of all the delicious things in our life that passionately fuels us.” – Fit Foodie Race Weekend Organization

On Saturday, October 22^nd, join thousands in the 10K race at the Embarcadero Marina Park South. Starting bright and early at 7 a.m., the event will feature prices for race winners, fit foodie t-shirts, culinary demonstrations, raffles, and post celebratory drinks.

For those who want a smaller race to join in on the fun, on October 23^rd, there will be a 5K race. This includes all the perks of the 10K, but with a smaller racing distance.

The idea behind the concept of the race weekend is that living a healthy lifestyle and enjoying delicious culinary experiences don’t have to be separate. Life is about balancing and indulging at the same time. The Fit Foodie weekend is packed with celebrity chefs, sweat sessions, and culinary/fitness demonstrations.

The Fit Foodie organization is persistent in helping The American Diabetes Association. All donations from the event will go towards helping those in need. So come hungry, lace up your running shoes and be prepared to have a blast at the Fit Foodie Race Weekend.
