The editor of Ultra Running Magazine states that Ultra Marathon “courses are acknowledged to be tough, and are cherished and admired for their toughness.” One amongst us, Harold Tucker is very similar to an ultra. He is as tough as an Ultra and he is cherished and admired by those that know him.

It is difficult to state everything Harold has done for the Space Coast Runners Club and for the runners of the Space Coast. Harold has been associated with the Space Coast Runners Club virtually since the start. He has been president, director, race director, fun run director, founder of the Bargain Beach Run, historian, statistician and advisor to our club. Harold was also honored with the 1992 Space Coast Runners Golden Shoe Award.  
 

At this time the Space Coast Runners Club would like to take this opportunity to announce the renaming of one of our races in Harold’s honor. A race very close to Harold, one he has directed and participated in. A race, a course and a man that is tough, cherished, admired and above all respected: the Space Coast Runners 50K Cross Country Beach Run will now be known as THE HAROLD TUCKER 50K CROSS COUNTRY BEACH RUN.
