Want to enjoy one of the top events in the Southeast? Sign up for the 2014 Quintiles Wrightsville Beach Marathon Madness. The Southeast Tourism Society honored QWB as one of the top 20 events!
The Quintiles Wrightsville Beach Marathon and Half Marathon presented by Landfall Realty will take place on Sunday, March 16, 2014.
It’s the perfect time of year to enjoy one of the best running events while celebrating your favorite college team during the NCAA Tournament.
And what better place to enjoy it all than Wrightsville Beach and Wilmington, N.C.! With world-class shopping, beautiful beaches, famous restaurants and the historic downtown waterfront, why participate in just another race weekend when you can have a complete vacation experience!
The event weekend also offers a 1-mile fun run benefiting the Cherubs Organization, a 5k benefiting the WBS Foundation for Excellence on Saturday, March 15, and a fantastic runners’ expo Friday and Saturday.
The courses provide runners a great experience on Wrightsville Beach, including scenic water views. This is a fast, flat, Boston-qualifier course with participants running through Landfall Community, and finishing at Mayfaire Town Center at a fantastic post-race celebration!
Known for high-end swag using Without Limits Branded Clothing, the event now offers all participants a free digital finish-line photo courtesy of Land Rover of Cape Fear.
Legendary runner Frank Shorter will be speaking at the Quintiles Pasta dinner the night before the race. It is going to be an amazing weekend! Sign up at www.wrightvillebeachmarathon.com. Don’t wait; we expect another sold-out event in 2014!
Proceeds from the event benefit The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, the Landfall Foundation and the Cherubs Organization. For more information, please visit http://www.wrightsvillebeachmarathon.com.
