It's the best July 4th tradition in Gainesville... The 47th Annual Jack Gamble Melon Run!
This three-mile run hosted by the Florida Track Club is as much a part of the Fourth of July as BBQ and Fireworks. Enjoy the rolling hills on this course, where age-group winners receive a watermelon! Age groupings for awards are in 10-year increments. Refreshments (most likely more watermelon) will be served to all runners after the race.
We'll also host a 1/2 mile run for the kids. After the running is complete, stick around to see the crowning of the King and Queen of the race.
Cost: $25 - $35
