🌊🇺🇸 Know the Course Before You Run! 🇺🇸🌊

Our Daytona Beach Firecracker 5K is a scenic out-and-back course on the World's Most Famous Beach. You'll head south for approximately 1.5 miles, where you'll find our water station and turnaround at 2071 S. Atlantic Ave., then make your way back north to the finish line in front of LandShark Bar & Grill.

☀️ A few race-day reminders:
💧 Hydrate before the race—the Florida humidity can be just as challenging as the distance.
🌦️ We race rain or shine. (If lightning is in the area, the start may be delayed for everyone's safety.)
🚗 Please allow extra time for parking. The Fourth of July is one of the busiest days of the year in Daytona Beach. Parking is available in the public lot at LandShark Bar & Grill, with additional parking along nearby streets.

We can't wait to celebrate America's 250th Birthday with you on the beach! 🎆🏃🇺🇸
