Event Description

Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual jogger, or just looking for a fun, healthy way to start your Independence Day, this event is for you! Stick around after the race to enjoy the Edmonds 4th of July Parade and keep the celebration going. We are changing it up a bit this year and while there is still a chance to beat Ol’ Man Brackett, the focus is more on the parade and community fun. All proceeds benefit the Chamber's programming and bringing great events to Edmonds. 

The 5K is timed and prizes are given for the top three runners in each gender and first place finisher in each age category. Winners will be recognized and prizes given shortly after the end of the race finish. View the 5K route here.

The 1K Family Run is a fun and exciting race for the whole family. Registration is free, but required to participate! The 1K is NOT timed.

Start for both races is at Edmonds City Park and Finish line is at 4th and Main. 

The race route winds through the scenic streets of Edmonds and the Town of Woodway, culminating in a thrilling finish right on the Edmonds 4th of July parade route, where crowds cheer you on!

Think you’re fast? Try to beat Ol’ Man Brackett!
For those speedier runners, a beloved element of the old Edmonds 5K, you can still race against a costumed runner portraying one of Edmonds' legendary founders, Ol’ Man Brackett—if you can beat him to the finish line, you’ll earn bragging rights for the year and a prize to prove it!
