FARM RACES UPDATE:
It is with heavy hearts that we cancel this year's 2021 Cherrylake Farm Races. While we would love to have our racers back on our farm grounds this year, we believe the most responsible solution for our community and employees is to cancel the event. With COVID-19 still affecting many in our community and Cherrylake’s safety protocols for its employees, we believe that our best option is to pick back up again in 2022. We will miss sharing the farm with all of you, as what we love most about the race is gathering with the community to celebrate and encourage each other, while having fun on the farm.
For those of you who have already registered for the 2021 Farm Races, we will be processing refunds, which you should see before the end of September. For more information on refunds, please visit our FAQ page.
Thank you for understanding, and stay safe!

Experience the iconic rolling hills of Cherrylake’s 1,000 acre farm with this unique race, located right outside of Clermont, Florida. The clay running terrains traverse natural lakes and endless rows of trees, and the cycling event connects to the eminent Cherry Lake Road course. Choose from either a duathlon, 5k or 10k. Connect with nature and participate in this unique race, while getting an extra dose of oxygen. See updates and sneak peeks on our Facebook page or visit farmraces.com
We will have water available before the race and at several aid stations on the course. Each finisher will receive accurately chip-timed results, a custom medal, a 2022 race gift, and post-race food.
In honor of each participant, Cherrylake will donate a tree to be planted in a protected conservation area to be enjoyed for many generations to come. All proceeds will benefit a non-profit.
Packet Pick-up: TBA

This should post within 5 - 7 business days (or the end of September, 2020). You should receive an email confirmation of your refund within 24 hours of it being processed. If you do not see this refund as being credited to your account within that time frame (5 - 7 business days from processing, or until the end of September), please contact finance@runsignup.com. Please be aware that some Credit Card companies can take longer to process the refund, affecting the time it takes to be reflected on your account. Racers can check the status of their refunds by logging into their runsignup account.
Cancellation Policy: We love to see you commit to the Farm Races early, but we also know sometimes life forces schedules to change. If that happens, you have options. You can choose and manage these from your RunSignUp login.
Rain or shine, the Farm Races will be held on the scheduled date. In the event of an unforeseen need to reschedule the race to a different date, you can request a full refund minus a 10% processing within the first 30 days of the date change announcement. You will also have the option to transfer your race entry to another person, free of charge. Please note, donations will not be refunded under any of these circumstances.
