About the race
The Granite Island Run is a coastal running event held in Victor Harbor, South Australia, centred on a route that crosses the causeway onto Granite Island. The event features multiple course options and a kids dash, and the setting includes seaside paths, gravel trails, sections with tram lines and short climbs, plus stairs and a steep ascent on Granite Island. Participants should note these event features: - Long Course - Short Course - Kids' Dash Entry and event services described by the organiser include electronic transponder timing linked to the race bib, with instructions to attach the bib at waist height on the outside front of clothing so timing points register correctly. Race packs may be posted to entrants who select postage, or collected from designated Running Company locations prior to race weekend; replacement bibs can be arranged at bib collection for a fee.
A bag drop tent is provided on the lawns in front of the Causeway Café but it is unmanned during the event, and medical services are located nearby. Eligibility and policies: runners for the long and short courses must be at least 12 years old on race day unless accompanied by an adult; the kids dash is suitable for wheelchair and pram access. Dogs are not permitted on Granite Island except for assistance dogs notified in advance. Medals and engraving are optional purchases.
The organiser permits transfers between distances and offers a basic refund option up to four weeks before the event, with an additional Diamond Cover insurance option that provides greater refund protection closer to race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
