About the Central Florida Legends Marathon, Half Marathon and 5K

The courses run out and back on paved multi-use trails and roads through the West Volusia corridor, passing through Deltona, the historic town of Enterprise, and along the shore of Lake Monroe before looping back to Gemini Springs Park. The terrain is completely flat the whole way, and the surroundings are classic Central Florida, open water views, cypress, and old-growth swamp flora.

Early packet pickup is at a local beer company in DeBary over the two days before the race, with race-morning pickup available at the park. Parking at Gemini Springs is free and close to the start. After you finish, there is a tailgate party at the finish line with beer and BBQ, and teams can compete for best-decorated vehicle.

Common Questions About the Central Florida Legends Marathon, Half Marathon and 5K

Will I finish last at the Central Florida Legends Marathon, Half Marathon and 5K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 13.1 Miles field finished slower than 2:24:14, and the last recorded finisher came in around 4:55:46, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Central Florida Legends Marathon, Half Marathon and 5K a good first 13.1 Miles?

A field of 292 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 13.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Central Florida Legends Marathon, Half Marathon and 5K?

The 13.1 Miles winner ran 1:12:18 while the median finisher took 2:24:14. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
