Bridgeport 5K Run/Walk

The Borough of Bridgeport is very excited to announce that we will be hosting our 9th Annual Bridgeport 5K. The Bridgeport 5K will benefit two fantastic organizations that are cornerstones within the Bridgeport Community - The Bridgeport Fire Department, and the Upper Merion Area Community Cupboard. Once again, we will welcome runners throughout the region to “test their skills on our hills” and join us in supporting this wonderful charity.

The mission of the Bridgeport 5K is to showcase our town to visitors and residents alike, encourage volunteerism, and provide a different, challenging, and unique course for avid runners and walkers alike. 

The 2025 Bridgeport 5K will include a 5K run/walk, a Kids Fun Run, live entertainment and race ceremony. This event will be staged outdoors in Bridgeport. Registration will begin at 7:30am, the 5K will commence at 9:00am, and the Kids Run Fun will start after the 5K has concluded.

Important Note: We always strive to ensure that enough race shirts and swag bags are ordered for every participant. However, we must place the order for shirts and bags several weeks prior to the event in order to ensure they are delivered on time, and therefore ordering quantities are based on educated guesses and projections! Because of this, we cannot always guarantee that late signups will receive giveaways, and may not be able to accommodate requests for changes in shirt size. Thank you for your understanding.
