About the race
Savannah Sultry Swamp Run is a trail event on July 24, 2027 at the Savannah Ogeechee Canal, 681 Fort Argyle Rd, Savannah, GA. The event is organized by Run 4 a Reason and offers multiple distances on a shared course.
- 20K
- 10K
- 5K
The course uses a 5k loop and runs on a technical trail through a historic Georgia swamp. Trail surfaces include single track, sand, roots, narrow boardwalks and palm sections. If it rains, participants may encounter mud and standing water. All finishers receive a drink glass to add to the Rough Runners Drinking Glass collection.
Wildlife noted on the course includes snakes, alligators, horse flies, fiddler crabs and raccoons; the event asks that wildlife not be disturbed. Event rules include being kind, leaving no trace, and avoiding course cutting. If a runner inadvertently cuts the course they must return and complete the missed section before crossing the timing mat; using watch mileage in place of completing the course can lead to disqualification.
A postrace gathering will include awards, a waterslide provided by Richmond Hill Bounce and Slide, and both adult and kid snow cones. Proceeds support the Savannah Ogeechee Canal museum and trail preservation. A representative from Ogeechee Riverkeeper will be present to provide information.
