Start off your Valentine’s Day celebration with a heart-themed race that provides distances not often offered in the area as well as spectacular waterway views! Join us on Saturday, February 9th for the 4th annual Wrightsville Beach Valentine Run that includes a 5k, a 10k, and the Double Trouble where participants run both the 5k and 10k races. The 5k route takes athletes around the very popular Wrightsville Beach Loop. The 10K takes a different route using the Causeway and Waynick Blvd. offering beautiful waterway views along the way. And if you want an additional challenge, take on the Double Trouble event where athletes run BOTH races.
The 5k race begins at 8:00 a.m. followed by the 10k race at 9:00 a.m. at Wrightsville Beach Park. Register early to receive a cool beanie! In addition to awards for the top race finishers, there will also prizes for best individual male, female, and couples costumes. So wear your red, white, and pink and bring your Valentine to Wrightsville Beach Park on Saturday, February 9th for some runnin’ fun!
