The Spring Rising

Saturday, March 20, 2027Oviedo, FL1 Miles – 10K

Kick off your spring season with the 6th Annual Spring Rising 5k and 10k, a community-focused event supporting local school educational gardens. Runners will enjoy an out-and-back course along the historic Cross Seminole Trail, which follows the former railroad tracks that once established Oviedo as a major agricultural hub for celery and watercress. This race is deeply committed to sustainability, featuring compostable water cups, on-site recycling, and eco-friendly race packets filled with practical, reusable items. After crossing the finish line, participants receive a unique, non-disposable finisher's award sourced from local businesses. The experience continues with a post-race Garden and Plant Expo, where you can connect with local farms and nurseries for expert gardening advice. It is a perfect blend of fitness, local history, and community giving.
