Florida Death Race

The Florida Death Race is a challenging trail running event held in Lee and White Springs, Florida, featuring two distances: a 74-mile ultra and a 37-mile "baby" race. The point-to-point course follows about 90% singletrack on the scenic Florida Trail, primarily along the Suwannee River, with approximately 2,500 feet of elevation gain for the longer race. Runners carry a symbolic 1-pound railroad spike throughout, which they cast into a wooden coffin upon finishing.

The race offers multiple aid stations, strict cutoffs (21 hours for 74 miles, 12 hours for 37 miles), and showcases remote, technical, and runnable trails with stunning river views and historic sites. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
