Clermont Clay 5K and 15K
The event takes place on Sunday, October 25, 2026 in Clermont, Florida on 5 Mile Road. Races are held on an off-road clay surface with out and back courses that include rolling hills. The venue has been adjusted from previous years due to nearby construction.
Distances
- 15K (9.3 miles), out and back on clay road.
- 5K (3.1 miles), out and back on clay road.
The 15K has a published time limit of 2.5 hours, which corresponds to roughly a 16-minute per mile pace. Course preparation includes grading of the clay road prior to the event, and conditions may vary with weather. Aid stations are located at approximately miles 1.5, 3, and 4.6, providing water, electrolytes, and energy gels; 15K participants will pass multiple stations due to the out and back layout. Participants are advised to carry personal hydration or nutrition as needed.
Chip timing is provided for both distances. Race packets are available the day before at a specified pickup location and on race morning at the venue. Registrations include a gender-specific singlet and a finisher medal for finishers. Awards presented by LiveTrends Design Group include top overall places, masters categories, and 10-year age groups with unique living art awards. A virtual option is available; virtual packets are shipped within the United States after the event and virtual results may be submitted within two weeks following the live race date.
Course and participation rules require registered runners to wear assigned bibs. Strollers are permitted at the back of the field and pets are not allowed on the course except for service dogs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
