Do wash your hands, though. For real.

Upcoming Run Sports

Back on My Feet 5 Miler - Saturday March 28

Back on My Feet is committed to building a stronger and healthier community. The Stroehmann Bakeries Back on My Feet 5-Miler helps to support our services to improve the self-sufficiency of those experiencing homelessness. Money raised from this event helps Back on My Feet in Philadelphia reduce homelessness through running and community building, as well as employment and housing resources.
Here's the deal for this year's race:
At Back on My Feet, we’re excited for another fantastic year in 2020, and first up is our annual 5 Miler race on March 28th.
We would love to welcome back team West Philly Runners this year! Our team challenge is back, with the largest team winning:
· 1 Private team tent
· 1 Private team portapotty
· 1 Table of spreads to accompany your post-race bread!
I sincerely hope your crew can join our community again this year! As a special thank you for your past support, I’m excited to offer you all $5 for each team member. Team members can simply use code WPR20 at check-out!

Love Run Half - Sunday March 29

I'll be honest, I wouldn't normally promote this race, but there are quite a number of WPRs running it and it'll definitely be a fun time, so if you're looking for an early spring goal race to keep you motivated through this winter BS, this is it.

WPR 26 x 1 Mile Marathon Relay - Saturday May 16

It's time to start getting our teams ready for the best dang race of the year! Whether you want to help us try to hold the title after we set a course record last year or you just want to casually run a few miles, you should sign up and join us! Don't worry about which WPR team you join, we'll finalize rosters on race day, so just make sure you're there!! 

WPR Interval Training - Mondays at 5:30pm

Whether your training plan is calling for it or you just want to add a little variety to your running, WPR has you covered for your interval training needs down. We meet up at Penn Park every week at 5:30pm at the bike racks south of the western soccer field (if someone has a better way of describing that location then let me know...).

The standard workout is 3-5x 1000m with 400m recovery between sets and the group is very good at explaining that workout to new folks who come out... so come out!

Runs End at Pasqually's
