Corolla Ten Miler & 5K

Join us for the inaugural Corolla Ten Miler & 5K on Sunday, September 20, 2026, at Historic Corolla Park on North Carolina’s breathtaking Outer Banks. This unique race invites runners to experience the unmatched beauty of Corolla—past the iconic Currituck Beach Lighthouse, through coastal neighborhoods, and even along a stretch of beach where wild horses still roam.

The 10-mile course is flat, fast, and scenic, making it ideal for runners of all levels, from first-timers to seasoned athletes chasing a PR. For families and casual participants, the 5K Run offers a shorter alternative along the same scenic roads and packed beach trails as the 10-mile course.

Whether you’re racing for time or simply soaking in the coastal views, the Corolla Ten Miler promises an unforgettable experience, complete with a welcoming community, post-race festivities, and race swag. Participants can expect a well-organized event with chip timing, water stations, and enthusiastic community support. Music, food, and craft vendors will enliven the post-race celebration, transforming the finish line into a festive gathering at one of North Carolina’s most popular beach locations.

Come for the run—stay for the weekend. Make it your Fall getaway race!
