Well-organized race with great swag – beautiful medals and t-shirts, beer or cider, and food after race. As always the award ceremony with podium is a very nice touch for runners and consistently provided at Coastal Race Productions events. Course was mostly flat and interesting views much of the way.

I was injured two weeks before the race and unable to run. Practiced fast walking, knowing there was a course limit of 3:30.
I enjoyed myself! The course winds through neighborhoods of cool beachy southern homes, southern oak, and spring blooming shrubs. The race start had plenty of bathrooms, good directions from emcee.
FYI, The start was chaotic. 5k, 10k and half start together, and that makes for a crowded turn onto ocean drive, slow start. If you are looking for PR, get to the front for start.
For me, planned walk, i was alone with the other walkers, slow runners fairly quickly. Course flat (tiny hill in neighborhood circle). Course support super friendly. Water and Gatorade there for us stragglers. No problem finding race course turns, both signs and volunteers clear.
I finished way ahead of the sweeper, and got my HUGE gorgeous medal and BBQ. Easy parking in and out. It’s a pretty area too, with beach and plenty of restaurants.
State 43 for us; we thought it was a nice small race! Hope I can run the next one!
Flat, fast, lot of cars on route

This is a nice little neighborhood run. My only complaints were that I didn’t see any porta potties along the course (Not that I needed them, but I tend to look), and, TBH, there were too many cars in the runner’s lane between miles 3-5 and 8-10. Y’all may be comfortable with your neighbors, but I’m not that comfortable.
This is just a great race!
Wow. Coming from Philadelphia and visiting Myrtle Beach. I decided to do this race. What a great race and whomever designed that medal, wow! I’m not usually wowed by swag … MORE
Wow. Coming from Philadelphia and visiting Myrtle Beach. I decided to do this race. What a great race and whomever designed that medal, wow! I’m not usually wowed by swag but this medal is special. Shirt is awesome too. Race is well organized with clear instructions and free nearby parking. I did not have my best day because as a northerner I was not ready for the humidity and it ate me up. But this race is pancake flat and really good. If you aren’t sure, just do it. Trust me.
Great race.

Great swag for starters. It was a great race from start to finish that was well organized with a very supportive group out on the course providing instruction. The course was mostly flat with very little elevation. A perfect course for someone looking to run a flat fast course to PR.
