I rarely race in the hot months but I couldn’t pass up on the chance to check SC off my 50 states bucket list with this race during our beach week. They have an 80s costume contest, which we won! Lululemon as the sponsor gave out top notch swag as prizes for costumes and there were coaster prizes for the top 3 in every age category, including Masters and Grand Masters. Nicest medal I’ve ever gotten for a 5k, produced by the best (Ashworth Awards) although the medal ribbon had the wrong date! June 20th and the race was July 20th. The only down side was the race began in the rain and ended in extreme humidity, making it not the most enjoyable run but they gave ice cream out at the finish which helped. Although there were no waters provided at any time, which I feel is necessary, especially in high humidity conditions.
