Description

Join us for the 35th annual Isle of Palms Connector Run & Walk for the Child, one of the most scenic and meaningful races in the Lowcountry.

Starting on the Isle of Palms and crossing the iconic Connector into Mount Pleasant before returning to the island, runners enjoy breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, marshes, and local wildlife along the way. Choose from the 10K or 5K run or walk, open to participants of all ages and experience levels.

This race is 100% nonprofit, supporting local organizations dedicated to the prevention of child abuse and the healing of children and families in the Charleston area. Over the past 35 years, the race has given back more than $1.3 million to local charities, including a record $200,000 in 2025.

After the race, celebrate at our family-friendly post-race festival with live music, free beer (21+), a kids’ area, local vendors, cash prizes, and an awards ceremony.

Run for the kids. Race for the cause. Experience the Isle of Palms Connector Run.
