Movin' Mullet 5k Run presented by Marine Chevy

When you hear the word mullet, do you think of the fish or the rockin’ hairstyle? With our race, we hope your future answer will be both. To help Swansboro kick off their Mullet Festival, we will hold the Movin’ Mullet 5K the Saturday before the festival on October 3rd.

We hope that you will use this opportunity to show off your fun clothing and awesome mullet hairstyles. Whether it is the North Carolina Neck Warmer, the Kentucky Waterfall, the Camero Crash Helmet, the Tennessee Top Hat, the Beaver Paddle, the El Camino Headrest, or even the Mississippi Mudflap, all mullets are welcomed…and actually encouraged.

We know that you will be all business in the front at the start line but that it will be a party in the back when you receive your medal as you cross the finish line. So channel your inner Billy Ray Cyrus, Wayne and Garth, John Daly, Andrew Agassi, Mel Gibson, every '80's wrestler or Tina Turner and go ahead and register now and claim your spot.

This event is owned & operated by the Jacksonville-Onslow Sports Commission. Learn more about us at www.playjosc.com

    Join us for the 8th Annual Tri For Fun race on Saturday, May 30th 2026 for this family fun event. We encourage all kids ages 5-15 to come out, and Swim- Bike-Run to the finish line. The swim takes place in our Olympic outdoor pool, and a run and bike through the surrounding neighborhoods makes this race a perfect event!

    What is Tri for Fun?

    A family fun event to encourage youth ages 5-15 to participate in a Triathlon and HAVE FUN!

    Family Fun

    From face painting to snow cones, this event will be a fun time for the whole family.

    Swag

    Register by May 1st to guarantee your t-shirt. All finishers receive a Finishers Medal. Top female and male winners were awarded for 5-8, 9-11, and 12-15 age divisions.

    Three Age Divisions: Ages 5-8, 9-11, and 12-15.

    All participants will receive a medal commemorating the events. The top finishers will receive additional recognition and medals. To be eligible for top finisher awards the participant must complete the event without outside assistance. Examples of things that would disqualify an athlete from a top finisher prize include: not completing the entire distance in the pool, wearing of any flotation device, and physical assistance from parents while on the course. This is not to be seen as a complete list and ultimately a decision to DQ will rest with event officials.

    Age Distances are based on recommendations by USA Triathlon. Click the "Course Map" tab to learn more.

    Race Training

    We provide a Training event to make sure all children are ready to race. We will go over transition preparation, swim and bike safety as well as course overview! Stay tuned for more info.

You’ll start and finish on the beautifully revitalized New Bridge Street, surrounded by the energy of family and friends and American spirit.

    This isn’t your typical 5K—cross the finish line and trade in that post-race banana for a slice of birthday cake! Stay for the music, cheer on your fellow runners, and soak in the patriotic vibes as we come together to celebrate health, happiness, and America’s milestone birthday.
