Crush N' Run 5K

Crush N' Run 5K is a morning beach run in Virginia Beach, starting and finishing at 712 Atlantic Ave near the oceanfront. It is a 5K, making the distance approachable for casual runners, walkers, and people who are there as much for the post-race drink as the clock. The route uses the beach and boardwalk, offering sand, oceanfront pavement, and a finish close to local restaurants behind the event. Waterman's Surfside Grille, Chix on the Beach, and The Shack on 8th organize it as a charity fundraiser. The signature perk is simple: bring your bib to The Shack after the race and redeem a free Orange Crush.
