Lace up for an unforgettable journey through the heart of Old Florida at the AdventHealth Orange Blossom Half Marathon-10K-5K in scenic Frostproof on February 28, 2026. This unique event invites runners to traverse gently rolling, hard-packed red clay roads that meander through active and historic citrus groves, offering breathtaking views and a truly immersive experience. What sets this race apart is that over 90% of the course covers these distinctive clay roads, a rare find in a Florida half marathon. Choose your challenge from the Half Marathon (13.1M), a 10K (6.2M), a 5K (3.1M), or take on the ultimate 15K Orange Blossom Challenge by combining the 10K and 5K.

The race starts and finishes at Frostproof Middle-Senior High School, where a lively atmosphere awaits. Runners can expect well-supported courses with aid stations providing hydration, and the finish line remains open until every participant crosses. Typical race day conditions in late February offer pleasant running weather, with highs around 80°F and lows around 55°F, and only a 9% chance of precipitation. Beyond the race, celebrate your accomplishment with a post-event feast featuring mouthwatering BBQ, tasty snacks, ice-cold beverages, and refreshing Florida Orange Juice. Half Marathon participants will also receive a commemorative Orange Blossom Blanket, a special keepsake from this one-of-a-kind Florida adventure.
