Destin History and Fishing Museum is gearing up for its Second Annual Destin 5K Mullet Run & Walk, set to take place on Sunday, October 6, 2024, at 4 p.m. The event, starting at the Destin Brewery, will feature a road race winding through the city.

Participants can register for the race through the museum’s website. The first 250 registrants will receive T-shirts, adding to the event’s appeal.

Following the main race, organizers have planned a special “Mullet Toss” Challenge. Awards will be presented not only for race performance but also for the top “Mullet” look, adding a playful twist to the event.

The post-race festivities will include an award ceremony complete with snacks and refreshments for participants.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Destin History and Fishing Museum, supporting its ongoing efforts to preserve and share the area’s rich heritage.

For more information about the 5K Mullet Run & Walk, interested parties can contact the Destin History and Fishing Museum at 850-837-6611 or visit destinhistoryandfishingmuseum.org.
