The Liv Active | Southern Fashion 10K offers a race entry that can include a full matching Liv Active running set, a rarity for a 10K event. This self-timed fun run takes place in Savannah, Georgia's Forsyth Park during a late-winter weekend, coinciding with the Southern Fashion Sports Festival. Runners can choose between Saturday and Sunday run times; Saturday attracts the larger crowd, while Sunday provides a smaller field and an additional opportunity to secure a race set. All finishers are awarded a medal, and the top male and female finishers each receive a $100 cash prize. The 10-kilometer course, approximately 6 miles, winds through Forsyth Park's tree-lined paths and historic circuits. As streets remain open during the event, it functions more as a community run than a strictly regulated road race, with flaggers and signage directing participants. Packet pickup is scheduled at Fleet Feet Savannah, and race sets will be dispatched separately in April. The apparel, designed by Savannah-based Liv Active, offers sport-specific options, alongside an entry choice for those solely interested in the race itself.
