Battle at the Border

The WRRC Battle at the Border is a cross-country running event held annually at Indigo Farms on the border of North and South Carolina in Calabash, NC. The race features a course just under 4 miles, winding through rugged fields, wooded trails, a bridge, and rocky roads, mostly shaded and marked with signs and volunteers. Set on a working farm, runners encounter natural sights like trees, a lily pond, beehives, crops, and farm animals. This friendly competition between the Wilmington Road Runners Club and the Grand Strand Running Club emphasizes team scoring by gender, making every runner's effort crucial. Carpooling is required due to limited parking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
