Independence Day Classic Returns on July 4th 39th Annual Running of Popular Event
So what are you waiting for? Grab your friends and family, lace up your running shoes, and get ready to take on the 39th Annual Independence Day Classic, hosted by the Santa Clarita Runners. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just starting out, there’s a race for you, and it’s sure to be a day you’ll never forget.
The Independence Day Classic has been a favorite of runners in the Santa Clarita area for nearly four decades, and it’s easy to see why. The event features a 5K run/walk along the City of Santa Clarita parade route with one of the best cheering sections in Southern California! For those who want to push things a bit more, the 10K run is a fast and flat out-and-back route that runs along the South Fork Bike Trail. A “15K Challenge” is available for those who want an even bigger test, where you participate in both the 10K and the 5K races. The options provide something for runners of all skill levels.
Overall male and female winners of the 5K and the 10K will receive awards. Also, male and female age group winners (first through third place) will be recognized for the 5K and the 10K categories.
In addition to the main races, there’s a Kids K race that is a great way to get the little ones involved in the excitement of race day. Kids K participants will receive a special medal to commemorate their achievement.
The event starts bright and early on July 4th, with the 10K kicking off at 7:00 a.m. The Kids K takes place at 7:45 a.m., followed by the 5K run/walk at 8:00 a.m. All races begin and end on the streets adjacent to Newhall Park, 24923 Newhall Ave, Santa Clarita, CA 91321.
Registration for the Independence Day Classic is open now, and participants can register online at id5k.scrunners.org. A special discounted registration is available through June 13th, and the fee includes a race tech shirt, finisher’s medal, and free race photos. Sponsorship opportunities are currently available for businesses and individuals looking to support the event and promote their brand. Interested parties should contact racedirector@scrunners.org with any questions or for more information.
