Augusta Run Club will be hosting the third annual Savannah River Marathon (previously known as Brett Wanted a Marathon).
The event will be on
October 19, 2024, and will include full marathon (7:30 a.m. start), half marathon (7:45 a.m. start) and 10K distances (8:00 a.m. start). Participation will be capped 225 runners total for all three distances. Please note registration for all events will end at 7 p.m. on October 18th or when we hit our maximun of 225 runners, whichever comes first. Registrants that sign up by October 5th will be guaranteed a t-shirt.
All three events will start and end at the Lake Olmstead entrance to the canal trail. The full marathon route will run along the River Levy Trail, the North Augusta Greeneway, and the Canal Trail. The half marathon and 10k will be out and back courses on the Canal and River Levy trails.
This is a bare bones type of event. There will be chip timing, and water stations every 2-3 miles. Please plan on carrying additional hydration and nutrition as needed. The trails and sidewalks will be fully open to other runners, walkers, cyclists, etc. Time limit for both events is 7 hours. There are no refunds for this event!
We hope you enjoy the event!
