About Us
Who Are We?
Joe Edgecombe and Marty Kirkland started the
Draggin' Tail Runners in 1995 to get all their
running buddies to join them in training and
racing in Sunny Hills, Florida. This is one area
of Florida that actually has hills that challenge
those wanting something different and beautiful!

What Are We About?
The Draggin' Tail Runner's main focus is on
directing quality running and multi-sport events
from a participant's perspective. This includes
a very organized event, accurately measured
courses, awesome multi-colored T-shirts,
unique awards tied to the theme of the event,
well stocked aid stations and a great post race
party.

How have we done?
We have just held our 13th Annual Draggin' Tail
18 Mile Run. Beginning at the 10th Anniversary,
a 5K Run was also held. Many runners are
repeat participants and travel from a very wide
geographical area! Draggin' Tail events are
very value oriented. Runners get more "bang
for their bucks" than anywhere else around. The
Draggin' Tail reputation says it all!
