ShamROCK N’ Run
The ShamROCK N’ Run in North Myrtle Beach offers three road race distances held on a course that uses Main Street and Ocean Boulevard. The event includes the following distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- 5K
The courses are described as flat with ocean and beach views. The half marathon is noted as a certified road course. Organizers provide music at every mile and additional on-course entertainment such as DJs, cheerleaders and a bagpiper. All races share the same start and finish area on Main Street and Ocean Boulevard.
All finishers receive custom themed finisher medals with moving elements: a 6-inch guitar pic for the half marathon with a spinning guitar arm, a 5-inch 10K medal with a spinning pot of gold, and a 4-inch 5K medal with a spinning base drum. Race bibs include tickets for a post-race after party featuring a beer garden and Carolina BBQ.
Packet pickup is scheduled the day before the race at J. Bryan Floyd Community Center, and is described as mandatory; a friend may pick up a packet on a participant’s behalf. An emergency packet pickup is available on race morning near the start line for limited cases. Two large parking lots are designated near Main Street; volunteers and staff assist with parking. The event posts results online immediately after finish and offers RaceJoy tracking for the half marathon. A virtual option is available; virtual registrants receive mailed swag within two weeks. Registration prices listed are $65 for the half marathon, $42 for the 10K and $32 for the 5K. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
