Event Overview
The Keel Farms Spiked Apple 5k is a multisport event held at Keel Farms in Plant City, Florida. The event utilizes the farm's landscape for its courses, featuring views of the blueberry fields and agricultural grounds. The host venue produces various sustainable products and offers a family environment for participants.
Distances and Course
The event offers two main distances:
- 5K Run/Walk
- 1.5 Mile Cider Walk
The course consists of a two-loop tour of the farm. The terrain is a combination of grass and paved surfaces with several turns throughout the route. Participants should note the surface may be uneven, which is a consideration for those using strollers. Both runners and walkers are permitted to join.
