FTC Archer Braid Trail 5k & 10k

Run the Archer Braid Trail!
We’re heading back to the southwest — Southwest Alachua County, that is! The Archer Braid 5K & 10K returns this spring, inviting runners of all levels to enjoy a flat, fast course along one of Gainesville’s most scenic paved trails.

The race begins at 8 a.m. at the Archer Braid Trailhead in Archer, with both distances following a smooth out-and-back route through quiet countryside. You’ll find a hydration stop with water and Gatorade at the 5K turnaround, and every race is professionally timed for accurate results.

🏆 Awards for overall winners and the top three finishers in each 10-year age group.
🚗 Parking: Available in the grass lot by the Archer Community Center (16671 SW 137th Ave, Archer, FL 32618), just a few blocks from the start line.
