2026 Santa Cruz Sunrise Rotary Firecracker RunSaturday, July 4, 2026 - 8 a.m.<a href="https://runsignup.com/Race/CA/SantaCruz/SantaCruzFIrecracker10Kand5K" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">From Santa Cruz Sunrise Rotary:</a>"The Santa Cruz Sunrise Rotary Club is fired up to bring you the 2026 Firecracker — and this year is unlike any other. Our nation is celebrating its 250th birthday, and we’re throwing the party Santa Cruz style: lace up your shoes, hit the pavement, and kick off Independence Day the way this community has for over four decades at Harvey West Park, Santa Cruz, CA."We’re calling all runners, walkers, families, and friends — our goal is 1,000+ runners this year!

"That’s right. We want to make the 2026 Firecracker the biggest in our history. So grab your crew, sign up your neighbors, rope in your coworkers, and let’s pack Harvey West Park on the Fourth of July. Whether you’re chasing a PR or pushing a stroller, there’s a run for you."Three courses. One incredible morning.
"10K — Take on the legendary “Thrill of the Hill” through Pogonip Park, top out on the Spring Trail winding through the stunning UCSC meadow, then drop back down through the westside neighborhoods and finish strong at Harvey West Park. This one earns its reputation.
"5K — Flat, fast, and contained entirely in the Harvey West Business Park area. The 5K course is stroller, ADA, and wheelchair accessible — everyone is welcome.
"Kid’s 1K Fun Run — Get the littles in on the action! A fun, kid-friendly course to kick off race morning."8:00 AM — Kid’s 1K "8:30 AM — 10K "8:40 AM — 5K"<a href="https://runsignup.com/Race/CA/SantaCruz/SantaCruzFIrecracker10Kand5K" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">More info here.</a>-- Image via Shutterstock
