Florida Death Race

Florida Death Race, held in White Springs, Florida, offers two point-to-point ultras along the Florida Trail: a 74-mile race with about 2,500 feet of elevation, and a 37-mile “baby” race with about 1,500 feet. The 74-miler starts at Full Circle Dairy Farm in Lee and finishes at Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park; the 37-miler finishes at the same park. Both courses are about 90% singletrack on the Florida Trail, with 21- and 12-hour cutoffs, and are described as insanely beautiful and remote along the Suwannee River. Runners carry a 1 lb railroad spike; finishers drop it into a coffin. Top 100 74-miler finishers gain early Georgia Death Race entry. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
