The Firecracker Fast 5K is a Fourth of July road race in Little Rock, Arkansas. It begins at 6150 Kavanaugh Boulevard and concludes on the east side of War Memorial Stadium. This point-to-point 5K, not a loop, is recognized by Runner's World as one of the country's fastest courses. For 50 consecutive years, this race has been a Little Rock tradition, bringing together families, friends, swift runners, and children on the same holiday morning.
