Run Forrest Run Endurance Fest 2026

RUN FORREST RUN ENDURANCE FEST takes place at 100 Tom Triplett Road in Pooler, Georgia, with a morning start for its fall race-day schedule. The event offers families and newer runners an accessible start with a 1 Mile Fun Run on the road, while the 5K, 10K, and half marathon utilize trail courses. A Memorial Ruck 10K is also included, meaning the event is not restricted to standard running distances. The trail races are clearly marked, and volunteers are stationed along the course to guide participants. The 1 Mile race is designed for children and families, providing medals for all finishers, awards for the top three male and female runners, and a complimentary ice cream scoop for kids from The Ice Cream Stop in Pooler. The longer races include finisher medals, race shirts, and age-group awards. Additionally, 25% of registration proceeds benefit the Effingham Navigators Group, a nonprofit that supports individuals with special needs.
