YMCA Tri-Span 5K, 10K and Livestrong Mile

July 11, 2026
Wilmington, NC 28401 US

5K Water Stations: Mile 1.1 and Mile 2
START TIME:  7:10 am

Please be advised:
We are very fortunate to host the Tri-Span 5K course in historic downtown Wilmington.  However, running through a historic town does present a few issues.  The course will contain sections of boardwalk, cobblestones, uneven brick, and pavement.  Roads will be open to vehicular traffic so please be aware of your surroundings and your footing.  Additionally, downtown Wilmington is undergoing some construction that largely dictates where we can hold the race.  To accommodate for construction and provide the safest course possible, the course is a little long measuring about 3.2 miles.
