Baptist Health Tour of the Gables

Baptist Health Tour of the Gables takes place in Coral Gables, Florida, on April 24, 2027, with two distances on the schedule: a 5K and a 10K. The route combines a city setting with the nearby coast, a mix typical of this residential community in the Miami area, and it carries no major technical difficulty.

Both formats are open to beginners and experienced runners alike. If you are racing the 10K, the lack of hard terrain means pace discipline decides your result: settle into rhythm early and keep the effort even. The 5K is a good first race or a sharp tune-up. Because south Florida mornings in late April are warm and humid, do most of your preparation at an easy effort rather than by pace, and drink at every station. Six weeks of regular running with one faster session a week covers either distance.
