Surf to Sound 5K

Surf to Sound 5K takes place in Surf City, North Carolina, at Soundside Park. The event offers a 5K Run/Walk (timed) and a 5K Virtual Run/Walk. The course starts in Soundside Park, crosses the Surf City Bridge to Atkinson Point, loops back toward the island, crosses the bridge again, and finishes at Soundside Park, delivering views of the Topsail Sound and the Atlantic Ocean over about 3.1 miles.

The route is stroller- and wheelchair-friendly, and dogs are not allowed. Finisher medals are awarded, with top overall and age-group honors. Race shirts are guaranteed for registrants by September 25, and proceeds benefit the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center.
