Red, White & Blue Crab Run: Maryland’s 250th Anniversary Virtual 4th of July Race

Celebrate America’s 250th anniversary Maryland-style with the Red, White & Blue Crab Run, a festive virtual race honoring the spirit of the Fourth of July, the pride of Maryland, and the iconic blue crab.

Run, walk, or crab-walk your miles from anywhere as we come together to celebrate freedom, community, and Old Line State pride. Whether you are racing along the Chesapeake Bay, through your neighborhood, on a treadmill, or from your favorite local trail, this virtual event lets you take part on your own schedule.

Show off your red, white, blue, and Maryland flag flair, snap a race-day photo, and make this Independence Day one to remember. Participants can complete their distance anytime during the race window and submit their results online. All participants will receive a T-shirt shipped directly to them. 

Join us for a fun, flexible, and patriotic celebration filled with Maryland charm, coastal spirit, and plenty of crabby pride. Lace up, wave the flag, and be part of a historic 250th anniversary run!
