Independence Day 5K and 1 Mile
Established in Marksville, Louisiana, the Independence Day 5K / 1 Mile returns for its second annual edition on July 4, 2026. This festive event encourages community members to gather and celebrate the national holiday through physical activity. The race is located at 711 Paragon Place and takes participants through the local community.
Participants have two distance options to choose from:
- 5 km
- 1 mile
The run precedes the community's annual Arts and Music Festival, allowing attendees to exercise outdoors before other holiday festivities begin. Participants often wear red, white, and blue attire to match the event's theme. The event is open to various experience levels, from those seeking a casual walk or run with family and neighbors to more frequent runners. Online registration for both distances typically opens in early April. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
