Start your July 4th in Charlotte’s most festive fashion- by running, racing, and reveling at the 4 on the Fourth presented by Novant Health! Whether you’re chasing a personal best, a prize purse, or just want to soak up the summer spirit with friends and family, this four-mile event is the perfect way to kick off your holiday.

This endurance-based run is designed for both seasoned trail runners and those new to the world of ultras, offering an inclusive space to push limits, build community, and experience the beauty of trail running - without the intimidation factor.
Participants will have up to eight hours to complete as many loops as they choose on a 5K trail course at Daniel Stowe Conservancy. Where someone wants to walk a single loop, test themselves for a few hours, or push into ultra territory, this event is about personal challenge and shared experiences rather than speed or competition.

Join us for Claudia’s 5K: Call Out for Courage—a powerful event where fun meets purpose, all in support of mental health. Hosted by icuTalks, a Charlotte-based ministry working to break the stigma around mental health and create spaces for healing and hope, this 5K promotes courage, connection, and real change.

Let’s create an unforgettable 5K filled with laughter, connection, and the shared joy of walking and running for something bigger than ourselves.
