West Philly Runners: WPR weekly deets: May 22

Some Words from the Management

I lost track of the Parks on Tap schedule so we will not be going there this week but thank you to everyone who shot me a note it in the past few days! Instead, we're going to head to Two Locals. A head's up that the kitchen at Two Locals closes at 8 so if you're running 6 or if you just want to plan ahead, consider putting your order in ahead of time so it's ready for pickup when you finish your run.

Run starts at Clark Park (44th and Baltimore) and ends at Two Locals (37th and Market).

Philly 10K - August 25

The 11th annual Philly 10K marks the most significant updates to the race since we launched in 2014. In addition to the only opportunity of the year to run through the heart of South Philly on fully closed streets, this year we are adding The Philly Mile and a Kids Dash (what can we say? The founders both had babies and have grown soft) as part of the Diadora Kickoff Party festivities at FDR Park.
