Join us for a fun-filled way to kick off your Independence Day celebration in the City of Norman while running for a good cause!
Kick off the festivities at 8:00 am with the Sixth Annual Norman Firecracker 5k at Legacy Park. Hosted by Oklahoma Race Company and the City of Norman Parks and Recreation Department, this race is a great way to start your day and show your patriotic spirit.
Oklahoma Race Company is once again partnering with Meals On Wheels of Norman to make a difference in the community through this event! A portion of the overall proceeds from this race will go to the non-profit Meals On Wheels of Norman. You also have the opportunity to donate directly to the charity during registration, and 100% of these proceeds will go directly to Meals On Wheels of Norman.
