PLEASE NOTE: Registration will close at 11:59 p.m., on December 9th. The Tallahassee Ultra Distance Classic is a road race being held for the 43rd year at beautiful Wakulla Springs State Park situated just 15 miles south of Tallahassee, Florida’s capital city. A throwback to “the old Florida,” Wakulla Springs State Park is home to the world’s largest freshwater spring and the historic Wakulla Springs Lodge. This park was also the site of the filming of a number of Tarzan movies and The Creature From the Black Lagoon. We offer 50k & 50 mile distances as well as a USATF certified marathon distance, which will be eligible as a Boston Qualifying race. The TUDC will continue to unite some of America’s fastest ultra distance runners with those testing themselves at the ultra distance for the first time, for it offers a flat, fast, USATF certified and sanctioned, paved 10k loop course, great volunteer support, plenty of on-course aid and generally runner-friendly weather. Entrants must be at least 16 years of age. All runners will receive a finishers medal. Top overall male & female finishers, top masters, and top grandmasters in each race will be awarded. Proceeds will be used to support running activities in the area and the Friends of Wakulla Springs organization. Come run and then soak your legs in the spring with the manatees! 

START TIMES: The 50K and 50 Mile races will start at 7:00 a.m. The Manatee Marathon will start at 7:10 a.m.
