Sav Urban 50k
The Savannah Urban Ultra 50k Fatass is back but with a new requirement to be allowed to participate in it. The run is still free but the run is capped at a total of 25 runners. Anyone may register for the run that takes place on Saturday, November 30th but in order to be admitted into the run you must answer a simple question: Why would you like to run a free 50k through Savannah, Georgia?
The first twenty-five folks to email their answer will be pushed through from the waitlist and be registered. We'll then post the best answers on the RoughRunnersR4R.com/blog website. Please be creative and witty with your responses.
The Savannah Ultra Urban 50k Fatass is a self-support run through the beautiful city of Savannah.
The run starts at 8:00 am in front of the Waving Girl statue in downtown Savannah.
It ends on the same spot it begins. Although, the race begins and ends in front of the Waving Girl statue on Riverfront Savannah, the course does change from year to year.
The Savannah Urban 50k is most fun when you run in groups. So, quickly you'll find your pace group, -stay with them, taking in the beauty the city has to offer along with the richness of your running companions.
We change the course every year so that you may experience a new segment of culturally rich Savannah.
Please note, some of the course will travel busy sections of Savannah. We try to limit these sections but in order for you to get a fuller experience of this scenic run, these busy sections must be traversed.
Safety is always of utmost importance. So, when navigating the course through Savannah please be attentive to your surroundings! Run on side walks when they're available and, always run against traffic. Watch out for one another. Be the eyes and ears for your pace group.
The course will take you along grocery, convenience stores and such but do not solely rely on these conveniences along the way. In other words, pack enough fluids, gels, and other fuels to keep you hydrated, fueled and happy along your 50 kilometer journey through Savannah.
Take lots of pictures along your journey and share them with all!
Each finisher will receive a custom made tile art of a memorable Savannah token
Event's current local time: 4:25 AM ET
