The Horseshoe Crab Hustle starts and finishes at Bethany Brewing Company in Bethany Beach, Delaware, with most of the running on the trails of Fresh Pond State Park. It is a fall event featuring a 10K run and a 1.5-mile fun walk, suitable for runners seeking a longer trail effort and those preferring a casual pace.
Bethany Brewing Company hosts the event, benefiting the Delaware Center for the Inland Bays. Following the run and walk, participants receive craft beer, post-race food, fresh-shucked oysters, live music, and raffles that generate funds for the bays. The Center also provides information about its projects and programs, linking the race-day crowd with efforts to protect, restore, and preserve Delaware’s Inland Bays.
