Amazing Race For Charity

Amazing Race For Charity takes place in Eustis, Florida, on April 3, 2027. One distance is on the program: five miles on the road, starting at 8:00 AM.

Five miles is a slightly awkward length in the best way. It is longer than the 5K most casual runners default to and shorter than a 10K feels, which makes it a good honesty check on your endurance without requiring a real training block. Six weeks of running three or four times a week, with a weekend run reaching five or six miles, covers it comfortably. Race it and the pacing question is whether you can hold something close to 10K effort for a little longer; the answer usually depends on how sensibly you run the first two miles.
