About the Kiwanis Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee 5k

The course runs through downtown Brunswick on a certified road course. It is flat the whole way, passing through the historic district before finishing at Mary Ross Waterfront Park on the waterfront. The race feeds directly into the Stewbilee, a festival built around competing Brunswick stew recipes, with live music, a classic car show, and stew tasting going on around you at the finish.

Packet pickup runs the evening before at a running store on St. Simons Island, with race-morning pickup available at the start. Overall and age group awards are handed out from a festival stage, and your race bib gets you into the Stewbilee itself, which continues well after the last runner finishes.

Common Questions About the The Kiwanis Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee 5k

Will I finish last at the Kiwanis Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee 5k?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 31:07, and the last recorded finisher came in around 50:29, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Kiwanis Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee 5k a good first 5K?

It is a small race (152 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Kiwanis Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee 5k?

The 5K winner ran 18:04 while the median finisher took 31:07. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
