Mitchelville Juneteenth 5K

The Mitchelville Juneteenth 5K is a road race on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, with a mass start and a 5K distance. It is organized by Palmetto Running Company and tied to Juneteenth through its name, which also points to Mitchelville, the historic Hilton Head community associated with formerly enslaved people building a self-governed town during the Civil War era. The field is small and local in feel, with 72 racers listed in the results rather than the thousands you see at big-city races. Timing is handled through Webscorer on an iPad, and the results include overall, female, youth, teen, and adult age-group winners, so the event reads like a community 5K where competitive runners and casual participants share the same road course.
