Lace up your running shoes for the Viking 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon, set to conquer Green Springs Park in beautiful Deltona, Florida, on Saturday, February 28, 2026. This vibrant event, kicking off at 8:30 AM EST, promises a well-organized and engaging experience for runners of all levels. Participants can choose their challenge from three distances: a 5K, a 10K, or a demanding Half Marathon, each offering scenic out-and-back courses that highlight the natural charm of Volusia County.

The course is designed as an out-and-back, with the 5K completing two loops, the 10K four loops, and the Half Marathon six loops to reach the respective distances. This multi-loop format provides a consistent and familiar route for runners to tackle. As part of the US Road Running Race Series, the Viking races ensure a rewarding finish, with all participants receiving a themed finisher medal to commemorate their achievement. Runners are also encouraged to embrace the "Viking" spirit by donning their most creative costumes for a chance at a special award before the race begins. With a generous 3-hour and 30-minute time limit for the Half Marathon, there's ample opportunity to achieve your goals.

Packet pickup conveniently starts 30 minutes before the race at Green Springs Park, located at 994 Enterprise Osteen Rd, Deltona, FL, so be sure to arrive early. All registrations must be completed online via RunSignup in advance, as no on-site registration is available. For those driving, overflow parking is located at the Deltona Sunshine Senior Center. Typical race day conditions in late February offer pleasant running weather, with historical highs around 75°F and lows around 53°F, alongside an 8% chance of precipitation.
