О событии
The BEST Phoenixville running event (with the BEST medals) during the BEST local holiday in all of America, is BACK and EVEN MORE BLOBTACULAR THAN EVER for the 25th anniversary of Blobfest!
On Sunday July 14th, Steve McQueen and YOU star in the horror movie of the century! Uh...last century!
Not a runner? Get a group of friends together to participate in our course decoration contest and you could win gift cards to our local Phoenixville restaurants. Here's how it works: Your group will be given an area on the 5K course to decorate in some Blob (or other monster/alien) theme. The only rule is that you don't obstruct or startle our runners. After the race, runners will vote for the best scenes and the winners will receive gift cards! Location: The starting area is under the Gay Street Bridge in Phoenixville, PA (the same location as the Phoenixville Farmer's Market). The closest address is 200 Mill Street.
Parking: There is a good deal of parking in Phoenixville, but we expect over 500 runners, so we STRONGLY ENCOURAGE CARPOOLING (or walking to the start if you live close by). There are two municipal lots near the starting area. One is accessible by the driveway between the Municipal building and the Foodery (325 Bridge Street). The other is on the corner of Taylor Alley and South Main Street. There is also street parking on the streets around downtown.
Flexible Options: If you register for the half marathon but the day comes and it is very hot (or for any reason), you can drop down to the 10K or 5K. Just tell our timer at the starting line. Starting Times: Half marathon: 7 am / 10K: 8 am / 5K: 8:05 am / Kids' Run 8:10 am
Bib Pickup: There are 2 options for packet pickup this year.
