Join us for the Claremont Freedom 5K on July 4, 2026, starting and finishing at Memorial Park in Claremont, CA (840 N Indian Hill Blvd, Claremont, CA). This scenic course takes runners through Claremont’s charming neighborhoods on paved roads with some rolling hills—perfect for runners and walkers of all abilities.
There is a 1k kids run/walk which starts at 7:30am, followed by the 5k which starts at 8:00am. After the race stick around to enjoy the Claremont Village Parade and the city's lively July 4th Celebrations. Don’t miss out on this beloved community tradition!
All registered runners get a shirt (design coming soon) and there are awards for the top three in every gender category.
