About the Beaufort Twilight Run
The Beaufort Twilight Run is an evening race, so the light is softer and the heat more forgiving than a morning start. Several distance options share the same streets, and a challenge category lets you stack two of the courses back to back. The routes pass through neighborhood streets, so the course opens and closes on a schedule that keeps things moving.
Packet pickup is at Riverview Charter School, the same organization the race benefits. Dogs are welcome on the walk course but need to stay toward the back on a short leash. Strollers are allowed too, with the same ask: start near the rear. Food trucks and live music follow the races at the finish area.

The Beaufort Twilight Run has been held every year since at least 2013. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
