America's 15-miler is a scenic but challenging course, starting at our majestic State Capitol, taking you through downtown, rolling through our beautiful hillside neighborhoods, and along Charleston's riverfront. We also offer a flat 5k run/walk and a three-person 15-mile relay on our 15-mile course with segments that are 3, 5, and 7 miles long.
