Flatwoods 5K
Flatwoods 5K takes place in Gainesville, Florida, on a scenic limerock loop around UF's Austin Cary Forest at 10625 NE Waldo Rd. The route is a 5K on an unpaved road, praised for its beauty and forest ambiance, offering sights and sounds of the woods at sunrise. The course is chip-timed and measured with mile markers (not USATF certified).
A halfway water station and post-race refreshments are provided. Strollers are welcome. Parking and the starting line are a short drive from the forest entrance.
Registration is $20 with under-12 free; pine cone trophies are awarded in multiple categories, supporting forestry education and outreach to sustain Florida's natural heritage. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
