The DONNA 5K at TPC Sawgrass is an October 5K held in the Jacksonville area. It is one of three signature races in the DONNA Fearless Series, alongside DONNA Marathon Weekend and the DONNA Mother’s Day 5K.

This structure allows runners to receive four medals from three events, without needing a separate series registration. The DONNA events attract survivors, families, charity runners, supporters, and those running in memory of loved ones. Proceeds from the race help fund patient services through The DONNA Foundation.

The Jacksonville Marine Corps Half Marathon & Freedom 5K starts runners and walkers downtown Jacksonville near Riverfront Plaza, with both distances sharing the start on Hogan and Water Street. The half marathon is a 13.1-mile road race, paired with a shorter 5K, and the event is one of Jacksonville’s larger running days, drawing more than 3,000 participants in a past running. The race formerly used the Marine Corps Half Marathon name, and the starting area sits where the Jacksonville Landing once stood. The half marathon route is mostly flat and uses an out-and-back layout along city streets near the St. Johns River. Early on, runners encounter the main climb of the day with a bridge crossing toward Friendship Park, then return to the north side by way of the Acosta Bridge and follow Riverside Avenue along the river. The course continues through neighborhood streets, with turns near Willow Branch Park, St. Johns Avenue, Boone Park, Fishweir Park, and Yukon Street, where runners reach the halfway point before heading back over much of the same ground toward the finish.

Tepeyolot Cerveceria provides the beer and has brewed a special Festbier for the occasion, a golden German lager with a clean malt profile.
