Join this beloved Independence Day tradition for a speedy, scenic 5K through closed streets in Alameda, starting at 8:30am to give plenty of breathing room before the parade kicks off at 10am. The flat, point-to-point course winds through the Park Street Business District and residential neighborhoods, finishing at Webster Farmers Market, and this year features special 250th anniversary swag plus a complimentary shuttle back to the start. Your entry supports the Midway Shelter of Alameda while helping launch the nation's longest island parade, with packet pickup available July 1-3 at Laurens Closet or race morning registration at La Penca Restaurant.
