More than just a run, the Bluffton Bunny Hop 5K is a cherished community tradition known for its lively atmosphere and inclusive spirit, welcoming strollers and even friendly dogs on leashes.

The event truly comes alive after the race, with music, local food trucks, and a spirited contest for the Best Costume, encouraging participants to don their finest spring or bunny-themed attire.
