Independence Day 10K - Breckenridge

The Independence Day 10K is a trail running event held in Breckenridge, Colorado. The race starts and finishes at Carter Park, located at 300 S. High Street. This scenic route provides views of the surrounding Breckenridge area. Participation is limited to 500 runners, and the event typically reaches capacity in June.

Registration options include:

  • 10 km trail run for adults
  • 10 km trail run for youth 17 and under

The course features two aid stations to support participants. Restrooms are available at the start and finish lines. A strict cutoff time is enforced for this event, and all participants must complete the course by 10:00 am. Runners who do not reach the Barney Ford and Juniata intersection (approximately 2.4 miles into the course) by 8:30 am will have their route shortened by course marshals.

The first 500 registrants receive a technical race t-shirt, with sizes distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Parking at the event site is limited. Recommended parking is available at the Stephen C West Ice Arena at 189 Boreas Pass Road, which is a five-minute walk from the venue. Free public transportation is also suggested for reaching the park. The Firecracker 50 event takes place immediately following this race.
