With its lively atmosphere, walkable streets, and riverfront views, the new location puts participants right in the middle of the city’s momentum and makes race day feel like a full-on celebration.

Make sure to come out and join since the community really shows it's spirit as well as celebrating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.
