From the Organizer
The 5K Course begins on Locust Street near the PAS front entrance. Our amazing course will take you through the beautiful Penn campus on Locust Walk to Penn Park, returning to Penn Alexander School's Locust Street finish line. For the 5K, we are asking that runners do not bring pets or strollers on the 5K course. Please plan to be off the course by 9:20 AM to ensure a safe start to the 1-Mile Fun Run.
The 1-Mile Fun Run will go to the compass at 37th and Locust and back. The start and finish line will be on Locust Street, by the PAS playground.
Strollers for the 1-Mile Fun Run are welcome. Pets are not permitted on the 1-mile Fun Run course.
