About the event

2025 Jack Gamble Melon Run
t'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. We willl also have a watermelon eating contest! After the running is complete, stick around to see the crowning of the King and Queen of the race, and also who is the fastest watermelon eater.
