Small Town Christmas 34 Hour

Small Town Christmas 34 Hour is scheduled for December 5, 2026 in Valley, AL. The event is a 34 hour ultrarunning race held on a two mile loop that runs along the banks of the Chattahoochee River near Shawmut Airport. The event is organized by Muddy Crudd Trail and Ultrarunning.

The race is part of a local holiday tradition in Valley where a carousel is set up for children free of charge. That tradition began as an outreach by local textile mills and is now supported largely through donations from local businesses and city involvement. The ultrarunning event serves as an aid to help carry on the carousel tradition.

Awards and event items are specified in advance. Each registered runner will receive an event t-shirt if registration is completed by the t-shirt deadline of November 25, 2026. Each finisher will receive a unique finisher award. Runners who reach the 100 mile mark will receive a custom Muddy Crudd belt buckle.

Practical details on location and registration were provided by the organizer; the event listing notes registration closes on December 4, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
