Emmaus 4 Mile Classic – Emmaus, PA 2026

For nearly five decades, the Emmaus 4-Mile Classic has been one of the Lehigh Valley's most enduring races along with the oldest continuously run event of its kind in the region. On Sunday, April 12, 2026, runners will once again gather at Emmaus High School to take on the four-mile course that winds through our quiet neighborhoods and celebrates everything that makes Emmaus special. This year, the Emmaus Community Foundation (ECF) is proud to carry the race forward after taking over stewardship from the Lehigh Valley Road Runners. The goal isn't to reinvent the Classic. It's to protect what makes it meaningful while strengthening the community connections behind it. Mission: At ECF, our mission is simple yet ambitious: Enhancing the natural beauty and quality of life in Emmaus by encouraging philanthropy to fund high-impact initiatives that further develop optimal community living The 4-Mile Classic fits that mission perfectly. It's a celebration of fitness, family, and local pride. E
