Meet the Team
Charleston’s largest 10K race for charity draws approximately 40,000 runners each year. For the second year, Taco Boy, The Green Heart Project, and Orangetheory have teamed up to offer a fun opportunity to get in shape and build community over hot tacos and cold margs, while generating support for our friends at The Green Heart Project.
This year, our team’s efforts are supported thanks to United Community Bank.

Through April 1, every dollar you donate to Green Heart will be matched up to $2,500. And the more you give, the more you get!
Yep! Taco Boy, Green Heart, and Orangetheory are each offering incentives to reward for different levels of giving, from cool koozies and Green Heart tees to fresh produce and honey to discounted gym memberships.
