F.I.S.H. announces annual 10K, shares Hortoon’s log

F.I.S.H. of Sanibel-Captiva will host its 13th Annual 10K Race 4 F.I.S.H. on Oct. 23, in conjunction with the Fort Myers Track Club. Planning is in beginning stages and additional details are forthcoming.
As in years past, Hortoon’s creator Dave Horton designed the event logo depicting his lovable animal characters. Horton has been crafting amusing cartoon drawings for newsprint since he was in high school, starting with his school newspaper and eventually landing a deal with Hallmark as a teenager.
“Dave is a multi-talented artist and we are grateful to have him design our race logo each year,” race Committee Chair Diane Cortese said. “His artistic talent and sense of humor add something special to our race with each design.”
Participating runners will receive a dri-fit shirt with the logo on the front.
F.I.S.H. has had great fun with its annual 10K race. Last year, out of an abundance of caution for the public, the event was held virtually where runners participated and logged their time in October.
“While we are still ironing out the registration and format details for this year, we are thrilled to begin planning for the 2021 race,” Cortese said.
