UPDATE 3:36 p.m.: Students Run Philly Style’s Broad Street Run registration page is now open.
Nope, that’s not a typo — we are talking about the 2016 Broad Street Run. As of today, charity bibs are now available for runners willing to fundraise. That means a guaranteed spot for next year’s 10-miler.
The race’s official charity partners once again are Back On My Feet, the American Cancer Society’s DetermiNation, the Fairmount Park Conservancy and Students Run Philly Style. Those who choose to run for charity must fundraise a minimum of $500 for their charity of choice, and in exchange will receive a guaranteed bib — i.e. no lottery necessary — for the May 1st race. You can sign up with a $25 registration fee that goes towards your fundraising goal.
Each charity also sweetens the deal with some extra perks for runners. Back On My Feet runners, for example, will get t-shirts, post-race massages, and discounted entry to the Stroehmann Bakeries Back on My Feet 5-Miler on March 26th. DetermiNation runners will get an invite to a pre-race dinner, access to a race-day VIP tent with Porta Potties just for ACS runners, training plans and group runs and more.
As of this writing, the registration pages for Back On My Feet, the Fairmount Park Conservancy (Psst! Their runners can attend happy hours at Philadelphia Runner!) and DetermiNation are live and accepting registrants. I’m told that the Students Run Philly Style registration will open by tomorrow; I’ll update this post with a link once it’s a go.
