Get a jump on your Independence Day celebration and join us for the annual Swarthmore Lions Independence Eve 8K (5 mile) and 2 ½ Mile Walk. The race will be held on Thursday evening, July 3 at 7:00pm. This friendly, small town community race draws runners from all over the

Delaware Valley. This year, we will be running on a relatively flat 8K route through the tree-lined neighborhoods of the Borough. The 2 ½ Mile Walk route follows the first loop of the 8K.
