This race takes place in Wissahickon Park, a wonderful green oasis within the city limits of Philadelphia. A wonderful course featuring 90% single track trails (for the 13.1, there will be some forbidden drive for the 26.2).

It's time to celebrate our lovely Earth by participating in a run. Join us in a run where we will gather together all over the world and commemorate how amazing our Earth is! 

For every registration, we'll plant a tree on your behalf through One Tree Planted Org!

Run will sell-out QUICK! We will close off waves the moment it fills up. If waves are sold out, you can sign-up for the virtual run option and waiting list for future runs.

Run in this Small, Private Group Run with other runners and our run pacers through a beautiful route! All paces and ages (under 18 with guardian) welcome - Run or Walk! 

Run is capped at just 15 participants per wave for health, safety, and just the right amount of encouragement! No equipment or setup, just a pure run.

In case there are less than 7 runners, we will designate a Meetup or Virtual Run!

Participants can run on their own or meet new friends at the designated start and course location. If there are 8 or more participants registered, we will bring out a coordinator.
