From the Organizer
Join us May 16, 2026 at 9:00 AM for the Sewickley Classic 5K, a new spring tradition built around running, walking, and bringing people together in the heart of Sewickley.
The event features a scenic, fast 5K road race through the village, along with additional run and walk options, youth activities, and a post-race community festival. Whether you’re chasing a PR, pushing a stroller, walking with friends, or just here for the celebration, there’s a place for you.
The morning culminates at War Memorial Park, where runners, families, neighbors, and local businesses come together for food, music, activities, and a shared sense of community pride. The Sewickley Classic is designed to be welcoming, energetic, and local at its core—an event that feels just as much like a neighborhood gathering as it does a race.
Proceeds from the event benefit Laughlin Children’s Center, supporting vital programs that serve children and families throughout the region.
Run it. Walk it. Celebrate it.
Welcome to the Sewickley Classic.
