The Charleston Reindeer Run 5K is a fun holiday race for all abilities. It is held in Downtown Charleston with a great view of The Battery and Rainbow Row. The course is flat and fast and perfect for a PR, and if you are a speedy runner, the grand prizes include cash. However, this race is a solid option for any runner. It is very beginner friendly with lots of Couch-to-5Kers choosing it, and you can walk the whole course and still have fun. The course has spectators and local radio stations playing Christmas music, and the after-party at Southend Brewery features free beer.
The only snags I had were parking (garages were $5 cash that day), and our packets did not have Reindeer Antlers like some runners received. I’m not sure why they forgot our antlers!
I would advise anyone running this race to arrive early, as it is a large race and the parking garages in Downtown Charleston get crowded and fill up quickly!
