The Health and Fitness Expo will be held at the Marina Inn at Grande Dunes. It  will feature many exhibitors featuring free samples and showcasing the latest trends, designs, and advances in running shoes and apparel. The best thing about the expo is that it is free and open to the public.

Also, The Expo is where all marathon participants will pick up their race packets. Keep in mind, organizers say, all race packets for the half marathon must be picked up at the Expo as there is no  race day pick up for the half marathon.
