5th Annual Marin County 4th of July Run
It's the 4th of July, and let's be real, nobody gets the BBQ going until at least noon. So wake up, join your neighbors and strangers, and choose either the 4 miler or the 1 mile race depending on your level of fitness, your inability to back down from a challenge, or your desire to eat both the hamburger and the hotdog. Both of these courses meaner through Novato's historic Grant Street and then traverse the backside of the city over hills and dales. This really is the perfect place to begin the festivities as a parade will begin shortly after you cross the finish line. Wear red, white and blue, don your American flag and engage in a little civic mindedness on the nation's birthday.
