The race returned to the area after the McQueen’s Island rail trail was renovated following damage in 2016.

Course, support and rules

The course starts in Fort Pulaski National Monument and is a loop that goes through the park, across a bridge, and onto the McQueen’s Island rail trail. Surfaces include dirt single-track, roots, fields, gravel, some short road sections, and possible wet areas. One loop measures 7.75 miles; the layout may be flood dependent. There are three aid stations supplying water, GU Roctane hydration, and typical ultra food. An overall race cutoff is 8 hours. For the 50k, runners must complete one loop within 4 hours or they will be moved to the 25k with an unofficial finish. Cutting course or unsportsmanlike conduct will result in disqualification. Knowingly leaving trash may result in disqualification and fines from the park. Finishers receive medals; top three overall awards are given for male and female.
