The Queer Run Philly 5K is back for year two, and it’s bigger, bolder and still rooted in what matters most: queer and trans joy in motion.

Held in partnership with Students Run Philly Style, we’re bringing this year’s race to FDR Park in South Philadelphia — making race day more accessible than ever with a quick ride down Broad Street!

We thank Netanya DeRouchie (they/them/theirs/he) for lending us their time and energy to build the Queer Run Philly 5K designs!
