River to the Sea Run

The River to Sea adventure run is a unique event that tests your ability to navigate the shortest (or most fun) route from Downtown Wilmington to Wrightsville Beach. Secret clues given out the morning of the run will guide you from checkpoint to checkpoint, so the course will change from year to year. Approximate distance of the race is 11-12 miles.

The River to Sea adventure run starts in downtown Wilmington at Waterline Brewing and will end at Beach Bagels (7220 Wrightsville Ave). Beach Bagels has been super generous and will give all runners a 10% discount on coffee and food.
