Organizer Tressa Bevington hails from St. Andrews and tells Tide News it's a great location for an event like this.
She says the weekend also includes the Triathlon Canada junior elite series race which will include Reid Burrows of Grand Bay-Westfield.
Bevington says it's a really fast race about 58 minutes and within the town so spectators can check it out.
The Beat the Tide 5-miler will see runners race around Minister's Island and there is a kid's race through the trails of Kingsbrae Garden.
