Guale Preserve Endurance Run

The Guale Preserve Endurance Run (GPER) is a three and six hour timed loop experience on the trail around the Guale Preserve located on St Simons Island, GA.  This run will take place on New Years Day 2024!  We can't think of a better way to ring in the new year!  The concept is simple.  Choose to run either for three hours or six.  Run as many laps as you can.  The trail at the preserve is a mixture of single track and natural paths.

Guale Preserve is a wilderness preserve owned by the St. Simons Land Trust, Inc., and is open to the public daily. No portion of the fee is paid to the St. Simons Land Trust, Inc., or its affiliates, and no part of the fee is a payment for access to Guale Preserve, which is open to the public without charge.
