The Cooper River Bridge Run is the perfect outlet for capturing the spirit of wellness and connection that defines the College of Charleston. That’s why so many Cougars will be running, walking, volunteering or cheering runners on at the run on Saturday, March 28, 2026.

Not only will the College have a contingent of supporters at the corner of King Street and George Street to cheer on the runners, walkers and wheelchair athletes, there will be a branded tailgate tent at the Finish Festival in Marion Square, where participants can pick up CofC swag and take selfies.
