_ Welcome to the 2016 Neighbors Emergency Center Pleasure Island Bridge Half Marathon, 10K and Kinsel Ford 2 Mile event!
Port Arthur's Pleasure Island, an 18.5 mile long man-made body of land, extends from the mouth of the Neches River on the northwest to the Sabine Causeway on the southeast and is surrounded by Sabine Lake and the Sabine Neches Intracoastal Waterway. Half Marathon and 10K participants take on the challenge of the MLK Jr. bridge at 5,032 feet in length and 138 feet above the Sabine-Neches Canal. 2 milers enjoy the speed of a flat, fast course.
Cause: Join us in the national fight against obesity. We have a distance for everyone. If you can walk two miles, you can take steps toward the cause.
Awards: 5 Year Age Groups. Everyone who finishes the 10K or the Half Marathon receives a finisher’s medal for conquering the bridge. Everyone who registers receives a tech shirt.
Kids' Half Marathon Club available at no extra charge. Kids log 11 miles or hours of activity, register and complete the Kinsel Ford 2 Mile distance and earn a half marathon medal!
