My countdown

Just off the Coast of Hilton Head, SC lies a unique place, Daufuskie Island. Experience this island on foot by traversing breathtaking views starting inside Haig Point, a private Island Community.

Join this one of a kind running experience starting from your departure on the Haig Point Ferry heading to Daufuskie Island. First, you will be greeted with a morning cup of joe sponsored by Oz coffee roasters, cinnamon rolls, and entertainment under a heated event canopy. Then tie those laces for your 13.1 or 26.2 mile race! After you finish, a catered picnic lunch and an assortment of beverages await you…including a cool beer provided you’re of legal drinking age. You can have your finisher medal engraved with your finishing time at the Haig Point’s village after party. The after party will have entertainment for the runners and their family and friends so bring them along too. make this a weekend getaway and get some much needed island time in January!
