The Mullet Haul trail run is held each March on John’s Island, which is near Charleston, SC. Charleston County Parks & Recreation hosts this run and they do a great job. The price is lower if you are a county resident (always nice to save), but this year, they offered a deal on one of those daily deals sites, which was another great touch. Racing a lot gets expensive.
For the cost, this race was well worth it. For a small local race, you got a great tech shirt- including a women’s cut for the ladies. Everyone is encouraged to wear a mullet (fake or real… I guess if you’re into getting a mullet just for this race), flannel shirts, cutoffs, and other country/redneck looking clothes. They also have a costume contest- which is fun, it makes it more like an event than a competition. Runners also got a fun “Mullet on the go” headband.
The after party had free beer, soup, macaroni and cheese, bread pudding, and the typical race refreshments. The awards were also great (winners got a “red solo cup” trophy), and they had a band and photo booth.
Another touch: I think it’s the only 5 mile/10 mile run in the Charleston area, so if you’re local… it’s a good chance for an instant PR
