The KŌR Wilmington Trail Run takes you off the pavement and into the natural beauty of one of coastal North Carolina's most scenic trail systems. Whether you're chasing a new personal best, tackling your first trail race, or simply looking for a memorable morning outdoors, KŌR offers an experience that's as welcoming as it is rewarding.

Choose between a 5K or 10K course winding through shaded forests, flowing singletrack, and peaceful park trails. Every mile brings changing terrain, fresh scenery, and just enough challenge to remind you why trail running is unlike anything else.

KŌR is built for everyone. Experienced trail runners will appreciate the rhythm and technical variety of the course, while newcomers will find an encouraging atmosphere where the finish line matters more than the finishing place. Bring your family, cheer on fellow runners, and enjoy a race-day community that celebrates every accomplishment.

More than a race, KŌR is about reconnecting—to nature, to community, and to yourself.

Produced by Set Up Events, North Carolina's endurance event specialists since 1994 and proudly U.S. Marine Corps veteran-owned and operated, KŌR continues a tradition of creating professionally organized events that leave participants eager for the next adventure.

Step onto the trail. Challenge yourself. Earn Every Mile.
