Florida Five
Florida Five is a five-day running event in Central Florida taking place from February 18 to February 22, 2027. Each day is held at a different park: Cady Way Park in Winter Park, Kit Land Nelson Park in Apopka, Chapin Station in Winter Garden, Blanchard Park in Union Park, and Barnett Park in Orlando. Participants may enter a single day, multiple days, or all five days.
Distances offered each day:
- 50K
- Marathon (26.2 miles)
- Half marathon (13.1 miles)
- 10K
- 5K
Courses are lap-style out-and-back routes on primarily paved, urban run and bike trails that are fairly flat and often shaded. The marathon and half marathon use laps of about 1.9 to 2.2 miles (full expected to be about 12 to 14 laps, half about 6 to 7 laps). The 5K and 10K use roughly 1.55-mile laps (two laps for the 5K, four for the 10K). The 50K is expected to be 14 to 16 marathon laps plus two short laps at the end. Turnaround points will be marked and rubber bands will be available to track laps.
Timing is hand timed rather than chip timed; a published finish time is provided. The courses are not certified and are not Boston qualifying. The event offers a simple finisher’s medal, no age-group awards, no event apparel, and is cup-less. Parking at each site is provided with details announced separately.
