Independence Day is Almost Here
Five days out from July 4, and we just added a pair of holiday races. Run through stunning gorges at the 2026 Finger Lakes Fifties in Hector, New York, or chase eagles along the Wisconsin River at the 2026 Eagle Chase @ Fire on the River in Sauk City, Wisconsin. Both go down on the 4th.
A Stacked August 1st
Mark your calendars: August 1 is turning into a monster race day. We added eight new events for that Saturday, including the 2026 Huckleberry Half Marathon in Welches, Oregon, the 2026 Wisconsin Trail Assail National Watermelon Run in Hartford, and the 2026 The Legend in Laingsburg, Michigan. Also new: 2026 Brazen Summer Breeze (San Leandro, CA), 2026 Remember The Alamo Beer (San Antonio, TX), 2026 Philmont Trail Race (Albuquerque, NM), and 2026 Port Oneida Run (Sleeping Bear Dunes, MI).
More Midwest Mid-Summer Miles
Wisconsin is having a moment. Beyond the July 4 Eagle Chase, we added the 2026 WaunaFest Run (July 25) and 2026 Cudahy Classic Races (July 26). Michigan is also well-represented: the 2026 Coast Guard City USA Run on July 25 and 2026 Port Oneida Run on August 1.
