About the Super Dolphin Day Run
The race starts and finishes at the Casino on Beachview Drive, right along the water on Saint Simons Island. The course runs through the island's beachside streets, so the surroundings are flat and scenic without any real climbing. It raises money for the PTAs of two local elementary schools, which gives the morning a neighborhood feel rather than a big-event atmosphere.
The evening before race day, there is a pasta party and packet pickup at one of the elementary schools. Race-morning pickup opens early at the Casino before the first wave goes off. Parking is available around the Casino and the nearby lighthouse. Dogs and other pets are not allowed at any of the events.
