From the Organizer
Runners and walkers will make their way through the streets of Sewickley on a scenic, approachable course built for all paces. Whether you’re chasing a PR or just out for a summer stroll, the goal is simple: get to the finish.
Because that’s where things get interesting.
First, you cross the line into our signature Fabulous Foam Finish—a full-on foam party that turns the final stretch into a celebration. Then, just a few steps later, you collect what might be the best post-race perk anywhere: free ice cream from Scoops.
This is a finish line designed to be remembered.
It’s fun. It’s a little ridiculous (in the best way). And it’s exactly what summer in Sewickley should feel like.
Beyond the experience, the event supports ongoing village beautification and streetscape initiatives—so every step you take gives back to the community.
Run the race. Hit the foam. Earn the sundae.
