About the Charlie Post Classic 15K Run, 5K Run and 5K Walk
Both courses start and finish at a fish fry shack on Sullivan's Island and run through the island on open roads, meaning cars share the pavement with you the whole way. The longer route covers more of the island while the shorter one stays in the lower section. Terrain is flat coastal road, and the courses are USATF certified.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at a Fleet Feet location in Mt. Pleasant, with a race-morning window at the start area that closes before the gun goes off. Parking is along Middle Street and near Battery Jasper park off Palmetto, but you'll need all four tires off the pavement when pulling roadside. Do not use the library or post office lots.

The Charlie Post Classic 15K Run, 5K Run and 5K Walk has been held every year since at least 2018. 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.
