Healing For All 5K/10K

Healing For All 5K/10K takes place on October 24, 2026 in Gainesville, Florida. The Healing For All 5K starts at 8:30 a.m. and is the distance listed for the event. A single morning road race sits at the accessible end of the calendar: 3.1 miles is short enough to enter on a modest training week and long enough to be worth pacing properly rather than running on feel alone.

Think of a 5K as three miles of decision-making. Go out too fast in the first half mile and the last mile becomes damage control; start at a pace you could hold for four miles and you will be passing people late. Four weeks of running three or four times a week, with one session of short intervals, is enough to make that plan work on the day.
