Hilton Head Island Bridge RunRegister today for your chance to compete in the annual Hilton Head Island Bridge Run in Hilton Head, SC! This famous race is all part of the 18th Annual Hargray Hilton Head racing activities that will be held on November 7th, 2009 beginning at 8:00 AM. There are two races in the Hilton Head Island Bridge Run, the 10K Road Race and the 5K Fun Run and Health Walk.

Each of these races are set to start and finish at the Crossing’s Park and will feature racers of all skill levels. The 10K race will have a place for all standard racing divisions, and the 5K run will feature smaller, limited divisions. Each participant will be given a bright and fun Bridge Run T-Shirt to commemorate the event. After the races have finished there will be an exciting award ceremony to announce the winners. This celebration will feature live music from local entertainers, plenty of door prizes, and lots to eat and drink (we know you’ll be hungry and thirsty after working up a runner’s sweat!).

Since 1992 the Hilton Head Island Bridge Run has had over 8,900 men and women contribute to this race for local charities and have risen over $25,000. It’s so easy to join, and you can even show up the night before at the mall at Shelter Cove to get in on late registration and pick up a runner’s packet. This race can be intense, so be sure to look over the entire runner’s packet before starting the races, and make sure you know just how long the race you are running can be. We recommend training for this one for months in advance to be sure you are up for the challenge.

The earlier you register the less it will cost as pre-registration tickets will go for $25.00 and late tickets go for $30.00. Get in shape while contributing to many great local causes with the Hilton Head Island Bridge Run.
