Your old sneakers are making a new impact 👟

Together, you donated 529 pairs of shoes at the 2026 Philadelphia Distance Run Expo. That’s 655 pounds collected with an estimated 4,893 kg of CO₂e emissions diverted.

Thank you to everyone who brought their shoes to recycle and keep sneakers in play (and out of landfills). Don’t forget: Philadelphia Runner collects used sneakers at all of their store locations throughout the year!

The people setting the pace and celebrating beside you at the finish.

Thank you to the PHILADELPHIA RUNNER Pace Team for the steady miles, words of encouragement and company, especially through the rain. You helped runners chase goals, find their confidence and keep moving all the way to the finish line.

A big thank you to Brooks Running, the official footwear partner of the Philadelphia Distance Run!

Your support went well beyond race day - from the Yards Brewing Co. Bridge Run Series, Philadelphia Runner events, shakeout run with Q***r Run to outfitting our ambassadors, pace team and supporting PWRHER’D & Students Run Philly Style.

In training, at the expo, on the course and through the finish, you helped us celebrate the people who make this running community so special. Thank you for being part of PDR 2026 and helping more athletes run happy.

Here’s to many more miles together!

A medal for the miles and the memories🏅

This year’s Half Marathon and 5K medals carry on the PDR keystone tradition, with a spinning compass inspired by the adventure of running through Philadelphia. They shined even in the rain - and so did all of you.

Where did your 2026 PDR medal end up? Tag us in your photos!
