Battle for Independence Road Race

Registration

The Fleet Feet Battle for Independence Road Race is an annual 4th of July event held in Wilmington, North Carolina, starting and finishing at The Pointe at Barclay. The race features a flat, fast, and family-friendly course along Independence Boulevard and the scenic Cross City Trail, including shaded paved paths near Halyburton Park. Participants can choose between a timed 5K and a non-timed 1 Mile run or walk.

The course is stroller and wheelchair friendly but does not allow dogs. Runners receive a patriotic race shirt and finisher medal, with awards for top finishers and a costume contest. Proceeds support youth athlete scholarships for a cross country camp. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
