The Reindeer Run is a 5k run/walk in downtown Charleston, South Carolina, designed for families, casual runners, walkers, and those with pets. This yearly event, now over thirty years old, has expanded from a small local race with a few hundred participants to over 3,500 runners.
The course is a short city 5k, suitable for first-timers, children, walkers, and groups seeking a social run through Charleston. Entry fees and race fundraising benefit MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital, supporting its neonatal intensive care unit, pediatric cancer floor, and South Carolina’s most comprehensive pediatric heart center.
