🐍 GET NOTHING 5K #009 - Year of the Snake Trail 5K

The Lunar New Year is upon us, and 2025 will be the Year of the SNAKE! What better way to celebrate the onset of the Year than on a TRAIL out in nature, since that’s usually where all the snakes hang out? 😅 But no worries, chances are you won’t see an actual reptile in January - it’s hibernation time! No time to hibernate for us humans, however... so please come enjoy this afternoon trail 5K.

🏞️ Trail Experience

  • On a trail: THIS IS ON A TRAIL (for a change), not a paved surface!
  • Course description: This course is VERY VERY TAME - basically a wide, flat, hard-packed sand road without any turns, major roots, ruts or other tripping hazards.
  • Shoe choice: You could even wear your road running shoes, and there is ZERO chance you’ll get lost.
  • For seasoned runners: Use this trail 5K as an easy tune-up for more serious excursions to come! 😄

🎉 Event Details

Either way, please join us for this FREE timed 5K on Saturday, January 25. Run starts at 02:25 pm at the Branan Field Wildlife & Environmental Area, not far from the heart of Oakleaf on the Jacksonville Westside. All participants will receive a small snake charm as a memento, thanks to our very generous donors. See you on the trail, and Gong Xi Fa Cai!

🚫 What You Get

  • No swag: GET NOTHING 5K offers NO swag bags, NO medals, and absolutely NO shirts - just the pure, unadulterated joy of running together.
  • Finish line experience: Experience the exhilaration of crossing the finish line and getting NOTHING.
  • Bring your own hydration: Since you get NOTHING, you even need to bring your own HYDRATION.
  • Free event: But that’s okay, because you also PAID NOTHING - GET NOTHING 5K is a FREE TIMED 5K. 🤷‍♂️

🏃‍♂️ Make It Yours

Make it whatever YOU want it to be: you can run fast and aim for a PR if you want, but if you "win", you still get NOTHING. Run fast, or run slow - or somewhere in between. Do a tempo run, interval training, use it as a tune-up or shake-out, just get in a few miles for the day, or enjoy a leisurely jog with your running bestie. Meet new friends, catch up with old ones, encourage others along the way, maybe even inspire someone to join the fun next time.

👟 Walking is Welcome

WALKERS are very welcome. GET NOTHING 5K is a community event meant for everyone, regardless of pace. There will be a designated "TURTLE" whose job is to bring up the rear. So unless YOU volunteer for this vital task, you will never finish last!

🍦 Post-Race Social

Since you get NOTHING to eat or drink at the finish line - no water, no chewy granola bar, not even a stinkin' banana - why not have a spontaneous social meet-up afterwards? Go for a beverage, ice cream, or some tacos with your fellow finishers. You earned it today! After all you ran 5 kilometers, by gum!

✅ Participation Guidelines

  • Registration: To participate: register online, check in before the start to get your bib, then wear it on your FRONT.
  • Timing: Timing is done manually, and that’s really hard to do if you hide your bib!
  • Gun Time: Everything is GUN TIME. That means the clock starts when the GO command is given, NOT when you cross the start line.
  • Restrooms: Depending on where we run, there may or may not be toilets available nearby... so please mind your own "business" before the start.

🎊 Join Us!

Let’s get together to RUN, and to have some FUN - see you at the start line! 🏃🏃‍♀️

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN HYDRATION.
