From the Organizer
Philly Running Alliance is proud to support the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia at this year's Hunting Park Hustle! (formerly Hustle n' Ride)
Kick off the day with our 5k run or 2k walk in Hunting Park and experience the "Jewel of North Philly" as you've never seen it before -- car-free! Following the race, enjoy family-friendly fun, great food, exhibition races, a community ride, and more! All while supporting deserving youth athletes and our friends in the cycling community.
This is a fun, untimed run/walk.
Our race/run/walk is "donate what you wish." All proceeds will be split between Philly Running Alliance and our friends at the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia.
Philly Running Alliance was founded in 2025 with a mission to unite runners and clubs in establishing Philadelphia as a premier running destination, where all residents, regardless of age, background, or ability, can enjoy safe access to running. Learn more at www.runningalliance.org.
Through advocacy and education, the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia leads the movement to make every bicycle ride safe, to empower youth and adults to ride, and to foster a ridership that reflects the diversity of the region. Learn more at www.bicyclecoalition.org.
