10th Annual Edisto Road Race Recap
It was another great weekend for Edisto’s annual Road Race! This year’s 10th Annual Edisto Beach Road Race, featuring a 5K run and 1M fun run/walk, watched 92 participants cross the finish line for either the 5K run or 1-mile walk, ranging in ages from 8 to 81.
The Edisto Chamber was able to host another successful road race, allowing folks to enjoy the weather and have fun (or friendly competition!) The 5K began at 8:30 am, and the weather was perfect for the run. Runners lined up all together for a gun start. Another change from last year’s race is that we were able to hold an awards ceremony! Participants picked up their certificates and medals at 10:00 am at the Wyndham Rec Center, and had their photos taken to further celebrate their victories.
