Drink- Run- Repeat. Got your attention?

Looking for a unique twist on your typical race experience? Look no further! Introducing our exciting event: Drink-Run-Repeat. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just looking for some fun with friends, this race promises an unforgettable experience.

Join us at the beautiful Briar Patch Hunting property, situated just north of Poplar Grove Plantation. Here's how it works: participants will tackle a 5K loop, but with a twist. Before each lap, you have the option to enjoy a refreshing 12-ounce beer or indulge in some chocolate milk, with a tempting offer of a 2-minute deduction off your lap time.

But wait, there's more! For those who want to kick off the excitement early, you can run the Beer Mile. Before the main event, participants can partake in the Beer Mile challenge, where you'll enjoy a beer and run a quarter-mile, setting the tone for an adrenaline-fueled adventure ahead.

Now, we know what you're thinking—running in the summer heat and through the woods may sound daunting, but fear not! Consider it an added thrill as you navigate through nature's obstacles. Keep an eye out for snakes slithering in the woods and be prepared to brave the elements as you conquer the course.

Whether you're flying solo, pairing up with your best buddy, or forming a team of 3 or 4, the goal remains the same: conquer the 20K course in style. Please note, the beer option is exclusively available for those 21 and older. However, fear not, as chocolate milk will also be on offer for those under 21 or simply looking for an alternative refreshment.

As if that weren't enough excitement, participants will be required to hold a relay baton during their leg of the race, adding an extra element of camaraderie and challenge.

So, grab your running shoes, rally your crew, and get ready for an adrenaline-fueled adventure like no other. Drink, run, repeat - the ultimate recipe for a race day to remember!

    Event Address:

    2950 Island Drive

    North Topsail Beach, NC

    Experience the beauty of North Topsail Beach while testing your endurance in the Sledgehammer Beach Run—featuring a Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K. This unique race takes place right on the sand, offering both breathtaking views and a rewarding challenge.

    Hosted by the Jacksonville-Onslow Sports Commission, the event is held in memory of Dr. E.B. Sledge, a Marine and World War II veteran whose legacy continues to inspire. The mission of the Sledgehammer Beach Run is simple yet powerful: to honor the memory of Sledgehammer and all combat veterans.

    Dr. Sledge, a lifelong Marine, spent his postwar years reflecting on the sacrifices and experiences of those who served alongside him. In his honor, a portion of race proceeds supports Semper Fi & America’s Fund, which provides assistance to wounded, ill, and injured service members and their families.

    Add this bucket-list race to your calendar and run with purpose as you honor heroes, support a worthy cause, and take on the challenge of the Sledgehammer Beach Run.

    Course Information
