The Heritage Race
June 21, 2025, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm EDT
$355K RACE
Held for the 7th year, the chipped timed 5K race takes runners down Brunswick’s most historic African-American corridor and past some of Brunswick’s most historic neighborhoods, offering participants the opportunity to immerse themselves in the vibrant history.
This is a great opportunity to achieve a 5K personal record (PR) with its flat, long, straight stretches. This route follows an out-and-back path along Albany to 4th Street.
Guided Historic WALK
Participants take a guided walk down historic Albany Street, which has been the heartbeat of African-American history since after the Civil War. Walkers are transported back in time and can connect with the rich heritage and stories as they pass landmarks, historic homes, and sites.
Proceeds benefit the Brunswick African American Cultural Center (BAACC)
