On the evening of March 2nd, the 22nd Annual Belleair Sunset 5K and Fun Run was in full swing. Runners from across Pinellas County gathered to participate in a celebration of community, fitness, and fun. The course promised a fast and flat journey along the beautiful waterway, offering runners a scenic tour of some of the most stunning homes in the area.
However, the fun didn’t end there. Following the race, runners were treated to an unforgettable after-party, complete with live music and local food/drink vendors. As the event sponsor, we provided each runner a WestCMR branded ice pack to help them finish the race strong!
Reflecting on the event, one WestCMR team member said, “The run itself wasn’t bad at all! The weather helped since it was a little cloudy and there was a nice little breeze. All in all, this event is something I would do again next year!”
Camila Haagsma, a member of our sister company GeoSurgical, says “I had a lot of fun at the 5k run last Saturday. It was a great way to get some exercise, engage in healthy competition, and bond with co-workers outside of work. The after-party was amazing, with good food, live music, and cold drinks. I am grateful to work in a company that can provide and sponsor these memorable moments.”
In a world where the demands of everyday life often leave little time for leisure, events like the Belleair Sunset Fun Run serve as a reminder of the importance of coming together as a community to celebrate health, happiness, and the beauty of our surroundings. Here’s to many more years of running into the sunset together!
