Holiday 5K, 10K, 15K, & Half Marathon at Gemini Springs Park, DeBary, FL

Holiday 5K, 10K, 15K, & Half Marathon at Gemini Springs Park, DeBary, FL is held in DeBary, Florida, on December 19, 2026, inside Gemini Springs Park. The half marathon (13.1 miles), the 10K and the 5K all start together at 8:30 a.m., which keeps the morning simple whatever distance you enter. The setting is a natural one and the event is framed around the holiday season, with the range of distances wide enough that beginners and experienced runners share the same start.

A half marathon in the last week of December is a practical way to cash in a fall of steady running: if you have held a base since September, ten to twelve weeks with one long run each week will carry you through 13.1 miles. The shared 8:30 a.m. start also means a family can enter three different distances and still finish within the same hour. If you would rather not spend the holidays recovering, the 5K gives you the same morning at a fraction of the cost to your legs.
