Hampton Rotary Firecracker 5k Run / 1k Walk
About this race
Come join the Hampton Community in Hampton Community Park (3101 McCully Road, Allison Park, PA.) for the 20th Annual Hampton Rotary Club Firecracker 5K on Saturday, July 4, 2026, 8:30 am, on the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. This is a Hampton tradition and a great Family event that offers a challenging course for runners followed by a new shorter course for walkers who want to join us but would rather avoid the Middle School hill. There will be medals for runners in a number of age groups for children as well as adult men and women. Tech style race shirts will be guaranteed to all registrants up until the order deadline but we'll order enough to cover a few extra too. And of course, we'll send an email near the t-shirt deadline to all past participants!
Funds raised from this event support various educational and charitable activities sponsored by the Hampton Rotary Club. Check out our donations page for more information.

Walking
2026 Hampton Rotary Firecracker 1 Mile Walk Only
This option will let you avoid the run up Topnick and you can have pizza while watching a few runners finish. Walkers start after the runners, get a different bib and the same shirt, same participation medal, goodie bag, drinks, pizza, and fellowship as runners but there are no finish medals. One foot on the ground at all times!
