Organiser's Description
Join us on Saturday, March 9th to kick off the 150th Anniversary of the incorporation of the charming Town of Port Royal in the beautiful Lowcountry of South Carolina. The first annual Ribaut Run is named for Jean Ribaut, French explorer and ship captain who named Port Royal in 1562. Describing it as "No Fayrer Fytter Place", Ribaut's name and legacy are being honored in this run.
Start and end the race at the town's popular Live Oaks park and run along tree-lined roads to Sands beach, passing historic homes and landmarks. In celebration of the 150th, The Naval Hospital Beaufort is opening its gates for the 10k race, allowing runners to experience 1.18 miles through the hospital grounds. This includes a historic view of the Beaufort River, adjacent to Camp Saxton and the site of one of the earliest public readings of the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1 1863 at the Smith Plantation.
The race is sponsored by the Town of Port Royal and the Historic Port Royal Foundation. Grounded Running is assisting with race management and providing timing.
