ASICS Independence Day 4-Miler : event overview
The ASICS Independence Day 4-Miler presented by Independent Brewing Company is organized by Charm City Run Events and takes place in Bel Air, Maryland on Sunday, July 5, 2026. The race offers an in-person event and a virtual option. The event benefits the Chesapeake Cancer Alliance.
Course, logistics and race details
The in-person course is an out-and-back on the Ma & Pa Trail, starting and finishing at the William Street entrance. The distance is 4 miles. Strollers are not permitted on the course because parts of the route are narrow. Packet pickup is available at Charm City Run - Bel Air (126 S Main Street) on Friday, July 3 and at the Ma & Pa Trail (323 Williams Street) on race day. Post-race activities and the awards ceremony are held at Independent Brewing Company at 418 Main Street; the first beer is included for participants aged 21 and over.
Amenities listed for participants include an ASICS technical race tank-top, RaceJoy race-day tracking, a souvenir pint glass, and a hot breakfast. Awards are given for the top three male, female and non-binary overall finishers, top masters (40+), and top three male and female finishers in multiple age groups. Virtual participants receive the same swag options and may have materials mailed starting July 7; virtual performances are not eligible for overall or age-group awards.
