SOUTH END SHUFFLE 5K & MILE RUN

Saturday, September 12, 2026

8:30 AM Mile Run - 9:00 AM 5K

Presented by Skufca Law, Wooden Robot Brewery, and Beacon Partners, the 5K starts on W Summit Ave in front of Wooden Robot Brewery and heads into Charlotte's South End and Wilmore neighborhoods. There is also a 1 Mile Run for those looking for a shorter distance.

Registration includes a finisher medal and beer (21+) from Wooden Robot Brewery or ice cream for those under 21. Shirts included for the 5K, and available as an upgrade for the 1 Mile.

The South End Shuffle has a strong history of giving back to the Charlotte community. Each year, proceeds go towards supporting local non-profits, with our primary beneficiary being The Purple Promise Foundation to End Melanoma. This organization is dedicated to raising awareness, supporting patients and caregivers, and funding research for better treatments and a cure for melanoma.

In 2025, the Dan Wade Memorial Scholarship was founded, and was added as a beneficiary of our event. Dan was a dear friend, supporter and participant of the South End Shuffle.

We’re also proud to support West Blvd Ministry, whose mission is to serve the spiritual and physical needs of the families and communities within the West Blvd corridor in Charlotte.

By participating in the South End Shuffle 5k & Mile Run, you’re not just supporting a race—you’re helping fund life-saving research and strengthening our community. Join us in making a difference!
