Join us at the Rural Center on Saturday, September 19th for the Northern Outer Banks Salt & Sound Run/Walk! Explore waterfowl, wetlands, and even horses as you race along waterways, boardwalks, and scenic stretches overlooking the Currituck Sound.

The course offers diverse terrain and unforgettable views. Enjoy chip timing, well‑marked routes, water stations, and permanent restrooms. Our rear race marshals will be on horseback—ready to help you hoof it!

Strollers and leashed dogs are welcome (start toward the back). Don’t have a dog? We have some from the local shelter!

Stick around afterward for a pancake breakfast. Big shout out to Pro1 Pest Control and Towne Bank for their continued support!

Awards for overall and age groups, medals for all finishers, and shirts for the first 150 registrants.

This race proudly supports the Corolla Wild Horse Fund, Currituck 4H, Back Packs for Kids, and Kid’s First.

Thank you for Making this Event Possible!
