Lace Up & Hit the Coast
Get ready to soak up the sun, sea breeze, and scenic views on North Carolina’s beautiful Crystal Coast as you run for a cause at our 12th annual event! Our USATF-certified and sanctioned race isn’t just about the views, it’s also a Boston Qualifier– so bring your A-game. Whether you're chasing a PR or just here for the vibes, you're in for an unforgettable day. 100% of race proceeds go straight back into our community, supporting the local Bike & Pedestrian Path and a local health related charity, to be determined at a later date.

Run for a reason. Run with heart. Run the Crystal Coast.
We can’t wait to cheer you on at the finish line!
