About the race
Florida Five is a five-day running event held February 18–22, 2027 at five different Central Florida parks. Each day offers the same set of distances and participants may enter one day, multiple days, or all five days. All locations are within 35 miles of Orlando International Airport.
Distances offered each day:
- 50K
- Marathon (26.2 miles)
- Half marathon (13.1 miles)
- 10K
- 5K
Courses are lap-based out-and-back routes on primarily paved urban run and bike trails. Marathon and half-marathon laps are approximately 1.9 to 2.2 miles, with the full expected to require about 12 to 14 laps and the half about 6 to 7 laps. The 5K and 10K use roughly 1.55-mile laps, and the 50K is expected to be 14 to 16 marathon laps plus a short final lap. Turnarounds are clearly marked and rubber bands are provided to track laps.
The event is not chip-timed and courses are not certified. Timing is hand recorded, so finishers must notify the timer or ring the finish bell to receive a published finish time. There are no age group awards and no event apparel provided. A single aid station at the start/finish supplies chilled water, Gatorade, soda, and sweet and salty snacks. The race is cupless; participants should bring their own hydration device. Bathrooms are in nearby permanent structures with soap and water. Parking details will be provided for each site.
