PICTURE FLORIDA FOR A MOMENT! Golden sandy beaches? Lazy palms? Gentle lapping waters and tourists everywhere? Well, think again, this is North Central Florida, the heartland of this great southern state. This is a different Florida, somewhere where the tranquility and beauty has been re-defined and the imagination is often caught out. This is a Florida of rolling vistas, country lanes and acres of picturesque horse farms dividing the lush landscape with their neat white fences and elegant buildings. Tradition abounds and time moves just a little slower around the ranching families of South Marion County. The marathon and the half marathon once it departs the city limits has been carefully routed to explore and weave its way through these unique rural communities. It is a journey that will broaden your knowledge of our beautiful state and you will perhaps experience a Florida you never knew.
