The Bohicket Marina Run was founded in 2010 to provide the Low Country running community with a top quality 5K & 10K event. Thanks to the overwhelming support from our runners, The Seabrook Island Community Association, The Town of Seabrook and the Kiawah-Seabrook Exchange Club, and the Charleston Animal Society the run has grown every year and is now a top tier 5K & Half Marathon.
The course is unmatched in its beauty with breathtaking views of the sea island marshes, Atlantic Ocean and canopy of historic trees. Runners are treated to sightings of island deer, exotic birds and numerous native wildlife. The equestrian center offers interaction with local horses that have been known to run alongside the runners (on their side of the fence of course) returning to the finish line.
Water and Gatorade stations are plentiful on the course and upon returning to the finish line at Bohicket Marina runners are treated on the boardwalk to an abundance of food and beverages including hot dogs provided by The Salty Dog Restaurant and cold premium beer iced down from the night before! Every effort is made to make the Bohicket Run a memorable experience for each of our runners. Every finisher is presented with a large finisher award as they cross the finish line and Pelicans figurines are presented to the top three runners in each age group. Five-year age groups run from under 14 to over 85 in addition to Masters, Grand Masters and Senior Grand Masters.
All runners are chipped timed and the course has additional timing mats at the half way point of the 5K and the Half Marathon. Every runner also receives a heavy canvas beach/tote bag and long sleeve running shirt.
Come join us on November 18, 2023 for a great run and breathtaking view from Bohicket Marina !!
will be held again at the beautiful Bohicket Marina to create a run unlike any other. Also, for 2023 we are extremely fortunate to have Charleston Animal Society join us in hosting the Run. Runners from all over the South East will have the opportunity to enjoy the exclusive Seabrook Island scenery while helping to raise funds for various charities and promoting a healthy lifestyle in addition to providing care and shelter for animals needing help and protection. All proceeds from the Run will benefit programs supported by The Kiawah- Seabrook Exchange Club and will provide much needed funding for the wonderful work being done at the Charleston Animal Society.
