35th Annual Tri-Span 10K and 5K...

• 10K Run:- Run 6.2 Miles
• 5K Run:- Run 3.1 Miles

Run the oldest 3-bridge 10K on the east coast! Starts at the Cotton Exchange parking lot, across the street from the Hilton Hotel on Water Street, run over the Memorial Bridge and across two more bridges before finishing on Water Street with a 1/3 mile flat and fast run to the finish! You'll also have a short loop down Battleship Road where you'll run in front of the Battleship USS North Carolina and take in the view of downtown Wilmington across the Cape Fear River - very picturesque. There will be extensive coning on the race course so you'll run safe and fast over the bridges.You know it’s going to be HOT so take the challenge with the humidity, heat, and hills of Wilmington! Have a great time recovering with local watermelon, cantaloupes and cold drinks to cool down with while enjoying the post race activities and awards ceremony at the Cotton Exchange.

The 5K course travels through the downtown area and has some slight rolling hills and a couple of short, steep grades.

 Awards will be custom Tri-span award mugs going 3-deep in 5-year age groups in both races.
