WPR weekly deets: May 31

 

Some Words from the Management

We're switching things up in a big way this week and making our way to the Mayor's Cup Pep Rally at Craft Hall on Delaware Ave. This is a chance to hang out with some other Philly running groups and to get discounted registration for the Mayor's Cup. The 6-mile run goes straight there but to keep your runs at 2 or 4 miles, you're going to need to sprinkle in some SEPTA travel on the el from 40th Street Station to 2nd Street for the 2-miler or to 30th Street for the 4-miler. Thank you to Julia, our Mayor's Cup team captain, for making these routes! Run starts at Clark Park (44th and Baltimore) and ends at Craft Hall (901 N Delaware Ave).
