Derby Firecracker 2026

The 45th annual Derby Firecracker features a looped course starting and ending in High Park. Cash prizes go to the fastest male and female runners, with custom awards for the top three in each age group. All finishers receive a medal, and participants in both races get a special finisher medal. This year's race includes tri-blend shirts. It's a race "by runners for runners," welcoming all ages and abilities.
