Lace up your running shoes for the scenic Swamp Stomp 5K, unfolding on February 28, 2026, in the charming coastal town of Port Royal, South Carolina. This community event features both a 5K and a 400M kids run, making it perfect for all ages and abilities. The course promises picturesque views as it winds through Port Royal's streets, offering glimpses of local landmarks, peaceful marshes, and the unique natural Lowcountry scenery. Typical race day conditions in late February offer pleasant running weather, with highs around 66F and lows around 45F, and only an 11% chance of precipitation.

The Swamp Stomp 5K kicks off at 8:00 AM from Live Oaks Park at 901 14th Street, where porta-potties are available, and free parking can be found along 14th Street and Paris Avenue. After crossing the finish line, celebrate your accomplishment with a vibrant post-race celebration featuring local food trucks serving savory and sweet treats, alongside a craft show with local artisans. Every participant receives a finisher award while supplies last, and unique categories like the Canine Companion Award, Stroller Spirit Award, Ageless Athlete Award, and Swamp Rabbit Spirit Award add an extra layer of fun and recognition.

Beyond the personal achievement, your participation in the Swamp Stomp 5K supports a vital cause, as all proceeds directly benefit The Complete Student, a local school dedicated to providing enriching education for students in grades 5-12. Join fellow runners and walkers for a memorable day that combines fitness, community spirit, and meaningful support for local education in beautiful Port Royal.
