Race Info
The Charleston Half Marathon is a half marathon and 5K held on a Saturday in late January in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. The half marathon starts near Burke High School on President Street and stays within the city, and recent courses have passed Rainbow Row and the Charleston City Market. Both races finish at RiverDogs Stadium (Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park, known as The Joe), where the post-race party is held. The race is not a Boston qualifier, and a free Youth Marathon for local children runs the same morning.
