Uniting Philly Runners

Philly Running Alliance was founded in 2025 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.

As home to more than 60 running clubs, the Broad Street Run, and host city for the Penn Relays, we are proud of our reputation as a cultural hub for running on the east coast.

Philly Running Alliance aims to ensure that, as a community, we have a “seat at the table” when decisions are made that effect our spaces. Together, we can realize a safer, more accessible Philadelphia and grow our status as a running destination.

We proudly own and operate:

• The 26 x 1 Relay
• Hustle n’ Ride 5k Run & 2k Walk
• Philly Mayor’s Cup
