RACE DAY COUNTDOWN
A COURSE THAT WILL CHARM YOUR SOCKS OFF
An unforgettable affair beneath sweeping oaks and Spanish moss.
Where every mile is a waltz of grace, charm, and Southern elegance.
From Forsyth’s shade, wind through the heart of the city, past pastel porches and charming landmarks, right into the wild cheer of the Grayson Stadium, home of Savannah Bananas.
And when you think the show’s over... it all wraps with a finish line flourish at Daffin Park under the lacey shade of Live Oaks and Gum Trees.
WHAT'S INCLUDED IN YOUR ENTRY
Your Savannah experience starts from the moment you register with an exclusive runner community that offers year-round meetups, training plans, partner perks and Show Your Bib specials (for registered runners only).

All participants (for both the 5K and half marathon) must maintain a 17 min per mile pace throughout the course and must complete the race within 3:45 minutes. In the event you do not maintain this pace, you will be redirected. You can finish the race, but it would be unsupported.
The time count begins after the start of the last wave of runners. Runners who are unable to maintain a 17-minute pace, although encouraged to complete the race, will be asked to remain out of previously closed traffic lanes and will be asked to move to the side and obey regular traffic laws. The highway will be reopened to traffic on a “rolling basis” determined by that pace.
The Finish Line will stay open for runners and spectators until 12:00 PM. Aid stations, official finishing times, commemorative medallions, and post-race refreshments will only be available to runners who maintain a 3-hour and 45-minute pace or below.
Overall Award Medals will be available for the top 3 male, female, and non-binary winners.
Age Division awards are given to the top 3 male, female, and non-binary finishers.
