Honoring the Fallen 5K - Clermont, FL
The Fifth Annual Clermont Honoring the Fallen 5K is organized by the Clermont Police Department and takes place in Downtown Clermont with the start and finish at Suncreek Brewery. The in-person race is scheduled for February 21, 2026 and the event listing also includes a Virtual Honoring the Fallen 5k.
The race honors nearly 80 law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line of duty in 2025. Proceeds and donations benefit Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.) and the Code 4 Initiative, organizations that provide support to officers and their families.
Course details note a scenic out-and-back run along the trail with approximately 1.5 miles each way. There is a mid-course aid station that participants pass twice for hydration. Packet pickup is available in the days before the race at a local retailer and on race day at Suncreek Brewery; packets not collected before the event will not be held.
All participants receive an event shirt while supplies last, a chip-timed bib, a custom finisher medal, and post-race snacks. A complimentary draft beer is offered at Suncreek Brewery for those 21 and older, limited to one per person. Awards are given in overall, masters, age-group categories and several team categories. Course rules state that dogs are not allowed on the course, service animals are permitted with prior notice, and strollers should start toward the back for safety. A flag sponsorship opportunity is offered to commemorate fallen service members along the trail. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
