Florida Five
Florida Five is a five-day series of running events held in Central Florida from February 18 through February 22, 2027. Each day takes place at a different park or trailhead in the Orlando area: Wekiwa Springs State Park (Apopka), Kit Land Nelson Park (Apopka), Chapin Station (Winter Garden), Sanlando Park (Altamonte Springs), and Cady Way Park (Winter Park). Exact addresses and GPS coordinates are published for each day.
Distances offered each day:
- 50K, 31.068 miles
- Marathon, 26.2 miles
- Half Marathon, 13.1 miles
- 10K, 6.21 miles
- 5K, 3.11 miles
Races use lap formats on primarily paved, urban run and bike trails. Marathon and half marathon laps are about 1.9 to 2.2 miles; the marathon is expected to be 12 to 14 laps and the half 6 to 7 laps. The 5K and 10K use roughly 1.55 mile laps; the 50K is expected to be 14 to 16 marathon laps plus two short laps at the end. Courses are open to the public and may include other trail users.
Timing and event details are nonstandard: events are hand timed rather than chip timed, courses are not certified and are not Boston qualifier eligible, and the event is cup-less so participants use their own drinking containers. Parking is available at each site with day specific information to be provided. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
