Orlando 50K, Marathon, Half, 10K & 5K – MileBuilt Turkey Lake 2-Day Challenge is a running and ultra race on April 3–4, 2027 in Orlando, FL, with entry fees from $40 to $90.
THE COURSE
The Turkey Lake 2-Day Challenge runs the internal asphalt course at Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake in Orlando, FL, on April 3–4, 2027. Sand pine scrub, live oak, and cypress line the shore. Every repeat passes the pavilions, the water, and Southlake Overlook. The course stays inside the park's single gate — park and emergency vehicles still use internal roads, with one staffed crossing. Camp on-site and your start line is a walk from your tent.

WHAT YOU GET. WHAT YOU DON'T.
No shirts. No race bags. No expo. No chip timing. Nothing in a bag at the finish.
A measured course. A clock. A finish that gets recorded. And a reason to come back tomorrow.
Every finisher earns the Daily Finisher Medallion. Run both days on a Streak and you earn the Tier Patch.
RACE DAY CUTOFF
3:30 PM. This applies to the full race day — not per distance. Runners still on course after the cutoff will be directed off course.
PARKING
Enter Bill Frederick Park at 3401 South Hiawassee Road, Orlando. Parking is in Lot 1 and other designated areas — follow on-site signage.
CAMPING
RV, cabin, and tent camping put you inside the venue for the full Challenge. Reserved directly through the park, not race registration — sites are shared with the public and fill fast.
AID STATION
This is a cupless event. Carry your own fluids — handheld bottle, vest, or waist pack. MileBuilt provides water, an electrolyte drink, and basic snacks at Pavilions 1–2. Do not rely on the aid station as your complete nutrition plan, especially for longer distances or multi-day participation.
BIB PICKUP
Available on race day beginning one hour before your scheduled start time — honor system, no ID required. A friend may pick up on your behalf. No bib transfers.
FINISH
Not chip timed. When you finish: cross the line, strike the GONG, then complete the Clock Out at the MileBuilt Time Clock. Official finish times are recorded at the MileBuilt Time Clock and verified by the Race Director before results are posted. Every runner must complete the Clock Out process to receive an official finish record.
One day is a full race. Two days is a Streak.

This race spans more than one sport — here’s a guide to each, so you can understand what’s involved and decide if it’s the right fit. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer’s event page.
From 5K to marathon, running races are an accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
An ultramarathon is anything beyond the standard marathon — 50K, 50-mile, 100K, 100-mile, and timed events. Crossing the line is less about speed and more about not quitting.
