Bungalow Beach 5 Miler Brings 1,000+ Runners to Atlantic City Today – And AC Mike’s Boardwalk Tram Tour Keeps Rolling!
Hey Folks,
More than 1,000 runners are expected to hit the Boardwalk for the annual Bungalow Beach 5 Miler on Saturday morning. What started as a local favorite has grown into one of the biggest summer running events in the region, drawing athletes and visitors from throughout the Northeast.
The race takes participants along one of the most iconic stretches of Boardwalk in America before finishing at Bungalow Beach, where runners celebrate with food, drinks, music, and a little sand between their toes. It’s exactly the kind of event that reminds people Atlantic City is about much more than casinosโit’s about experiences, community, and making memories at the Shore.
I’ve always believed Atlantic City is one of the most underrated destinations on the East Coast. Whether it’s sports tourism, live entertainment, beach life, or simply spending a weekend with family and friends, there’s always something happening here.
And this Saturday is a perfect example.
๐ AC Mike’s Boardwalk Tram Tour Update
Speaking of Saturday, I’ll be hosting another AC Mike’s Boardwalk Tram Tour at 10:30 a.m.
Because of the Bungalow Beach 5 Miler, Boardwalk tram operations are temporarily restricted between 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. in portions of Atlantic City, we’ll make a slight adjustment to our normal route, but we’ll still visit and cover everthing we do on all of our tours.
For those joining me on the tour, FREE parking for all guests at:
115 Columbia Place
Atlantic City, NJ 08401
Guests should allow a little extra time due to race activity and increased pedestrian traffic throughout the city. Once parked, simply make your way to the boarding location and we’ll take it from there.ย Any questions, please call me directly at 1-609-513-8772
If you’ve never been on one of the tram tours, you’re missing one of the most unique ways to experience Atlantic City. We cover the history, the legends, the famous landmarks, and plenty of stories that you won’t find in any guidebook.
๐ Why Events Like This Matter
Every runner who comes to town stays in a hotel, eats in a restaurant, shops at local businesses, and experiences Atlantic City in a different way. That’s why events like the Bungalow Beach 5 Miler are so important. They create economic activity while introducing new visitors to everything our city has to offer.
It’s another reminder that Atlantic City remains one of the best places on the Jersey Shore for sports, entertainment, and unforgettable weekends.
