Girl Scout Island Ultra - Savannah, GA
Girl Scout Island Ultra is a multi-distance ultramarathon held on Rose Dhu Island at Camp Low in Savannah, Georgia. The event takes place over a race weekend and includes a lap-based course measured at 6.25 miles per loop. The race uses chip timing and has a race time cap of 32 hours for all distances.
Distances offered:
- 100 miles (16 laps)
- 100k (10 laps)
- 50k (5 laps)
- 50k relay (teams of 2 to 5; one runner completes each 10k loop)
- 10k (1 lap)
The course is described as non-technical and flat with occasional roots. There is one aid station on course; the event is cupless so runners must carry their own hydration vessels. Aid station offerings include hydration mix and Girl Scout cookies; those with strict allergies are advised to bring their own food. A registered nurse and an AED will be on site for minor medical needs; no analgesics will be provided.
Camping and on-site lodging are available through the Girl Scouts for a fee; primitive or vehicle camping is free for ultra participants with prior notice to the Race Director. Packet pickup and a pre-race dinner are scheduled during the event weekend. Proceeds support the Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia and Camp Low. Race rules require bibs, no RVs on the island, and adherence to course and environmental policies. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
