About
Run Sunset Beach is held in Sunset Beach, North Carolina, on April 10, 2027, as part of the BAM! race series. The half marathon (13.1 miles) starts at 6:45 a.m., the 10K and the 5K run/walk at 7 a.m., and the 1 mile at 8:30, all in a scenic coastal setting. Finishers receive distinctive medals, and medals and shirts go to finishers only. The area is known for its oceanfront park, its golf course communities and its ocean views, which is part of why endurance athletes keep coming back to it.
A 6:45 start for the half means an early alarm and a breakfast around 4 a.m., worth rehearsing on a long run first. The staggered gun times let a household split across distances and still regroup at the finish within the hour.
