River Run 5K & 1 Mile

The Fort Atkinson 4th of July Glow Run is a neon-colored nighttime 5K run and 1-mile walk. Participants wear white and get splashed with glowing red, white and blue powders at color stations along the patriotic course. The event starts at dusk, lighting up the streets of Fort Atkinson with runners glowing under blacklights. After crossing the finish line, there is a colorful glow party with music, dancing, glow accessories for sale, and more colorful powder throws. The event brings the community together for a luminous and fun way to celebrate Independence Day.
