Courses and facilities
All distances run on trails that include boardwalks, Spanish Moss, and multiple views including a beach. The organizer notes the terrain is barely rolling with minimal hills and that trail distances are not exact: the 10K is a little long and the half marathon a little short on most watches. The start and finish are at the back of the park near the river beach access.
Course formats: the 10K is one loop with one paved road crossing; the half marathon is two loops with two paved road crossings; the 50K is four loops with out-and-back sections, four paved road crossings, and access to the Palmetto Boardwalk. Aid: the 10K has one water-only station; the half has two water-only stations and one full aid station; the 50K passes restrooms, a water fountain, water-only and full aid stations across its four loops.
