Hilton Head
Island, SC

Event
Details
With just under 200 participants in last year's event for both the
half-marathon and the 5K race, the On The Half Shell Half Marathon is
one of the South Carolina's smaller running events, though it is also
certainly one of the state's most scenic. Run entirely along the hard
sand beaches of Hilton Head Island, the race starts and finishes at the
Holiday Inn Oceanfront at the island's Coligny Beach area, and features
a flat, natural terrain surface throughout the race course.
Run as a benefit for the South Carolina Special Olympics, the race will
take place rain or shine, organizers say, and starts promptly at 8 a.m.
For more information, email the race
director.
