Small Town Christmas 34 Hour
The Small Town Christmas 34 Hour is scheduled for December 5, 2026 in Valley, AL. The event is a 34 hour timed ultrarun held on a 2 mile loop along the banks of the Chattahoochee River near Shawmut Airport.
Organized by Muddy Crudd Trail and Ultrarunning, the event is presented as a community effort to support a local holiday carousel tradition that provides free rides for children. The carousel tradition was originally hosted by local textile mills and now continues largely through donations; the event serves to help sustain that tradition.
The course is a repeated two mile loop. Past editions recorded multiple 100 mile finishes, several personal distance records, and a world record tying achievement related to fifty 100 mile finishes in a year, as noted by the organizer. The event description emphasizes running the same loop and the social aspect of running with others.
Awards and entry details provided by the organizer include an event t-shirt for runners registered by the t-shirt deadline of 11/25/2026, a unique finisher award for those who finish, and a custom MuddyCrudd belt buckle for runners who reach 100 miles. Registration is recorded as closing on December 4 at 11:59 PM ET and the listed entry fee is USD 161.65. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
