Run for a cause. The 39th annual Charlie Post Classic 15K + 5K will be held Saturday, Jan. 27, 2024, at 8:30 a.m. at the Sullivan’s Island Fish Fry Shack (1424 Hennessy St.).

Presented by the Charleston Running Club, this event will honor Dr. Charlie Post, a Charleston runner, triathlete, and family physician. Dr. Post was the head of the College of Charleston’s student health services, served as the team’s sports physician, and is remembered as a volunteer in the running community.

The 15K run is $50, and the 5K run/walk is $40. Prices will increase on Monday, Jan. 1. The proceeds from the race help provide a scholarship in Dr. Post’s memory, awarded annually to a College of Charleston student-athlete.

Registration includes:

  • A chip-timed 15k run or 5K run/walk
  • A finisher’s medal
  • Long sleeve shirt
  • Refreshments

If you want to participate in the race, you can register online. There are also opportunities to be a sponsor or volunteer.
