One of the great traditions in Southern Oregon is spending the 4th of July in Ashland! For the last 39 years, part of the festivities has been the Ashland 4th of July run. The Ashland Parks and Recreation Commission along with Rogue Valley Runners sponsors this great all American small town run.
You won’t be disappointed with the closed scenic course for this 2 mile and 10k race. Part of the 10k course runs along the beautiful tree-lined Bear Creek Greenway. All participants receive a ribbon as they cross the finish line, and there are prizes for all age group winners.
After the race, hang out in Ashland and enjoy all the festivities! There’s the Ashland 4th of July parade, booths that fill Lithia Park with food, crafts, activities, and more! Top off your Independence Day Celebration with the famous Ashland fireworks show!
