About the Mount Dora Half Marathon & 5K
Mount Dora sits on a series of gentle hills, and the course uses them honestly. The route follows waterfront neighborhoods and lake-hugging roads, with Spanish moss in the trees overhead and water visible for much of the way. The half marathon runs as a single loop; the shorter distance runs a day earlier. Both start near Donnelly Street in the center of town.
Packet pickup is spread across the weekend, with race-morning pickup available as a backup. Food and refreshments are set up at the finish. Pets and wheeled devices are not permitted on the course or in the start and finish areas.

The Mount Dora Half Marathon & 5K has been held every year since at least 2014. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
