Cane Field Classic 2026

Welcome back to the annual CANE FIELD CLASSIC
Called “the quintessential Louisiana race” by a Louisiana ultrarunning legend, the Cane Field Classic is a race you don't want to miss.
And after four years away...
THE CANE FIELD CLASSIC IS BACK.
This isn't a road race with a little Louisiana flavor added afterward. This is Louisiana.
Runners race down headlands—dirt field roads—surrounded by mature sugarcane and freshly harvested fields. You'll run alongside large canals, through working agricultural land, and catch a distant view of the Louisiana State Capitol rising above the horizon.
The Cane Field Classic is truly a race unlike any other.
Come experience the annual family reunion that is the Cane Field Classic, complete with live Zydeco, Cajun and Louisiana-inspired music, great Cajun food, cold refreshments, fresh-cut sugarcane, and plenty of post-race fun.
