Full Press Apparel Memorial to Memorial Veterans Day 5K

Full Press Apparel Memorial to Memorial Veterans Day 5K is run in Tallahassee, Florida, on November 11, 2026, on Veterans Day itself. A single event fills the morning: a 5K (3.1 miles) that starts at 8 a.m.

A midweek holiday race is an easy one to fit into a training week, since you can run it hard and still have the rest of the day clear. Treat it as your quality session: warm up for fifteen minutes, race the 3.1 miles, then jog easy afterward and keep the following day light. For a first 5K, six weeks of three runs a week is enough, with one of them including a few minutes at a pace that feels uncomfortable but controlled. Walkers and run-walkers fit comfortably into a race of this size.
