Race Information
Come to the quaint town of Mount Dora for a run, filled with tree lined vistas of waterfront neighborhoods and lake-hugging roadways. Catch the rising sun through the gracefully swaying Spanish moss and watch the breeze dapple the lake’s surface with flashes of sunlight. The gentle rolling hills give this course a uniqueness of its own. From the start to finish, you'’ll remember the Mount Dora Half Marathon and 5K as the event you will not want to miss.
