PERT 5K Trail Run/Walk

The Trust has had a stellar year!  You can help us make this one even better. Not only have we acquired enough land to cross the 900 acre mark, but we’ve embarked on a mission to purchase the June Fete Fairground. All proceeds from this year’s race go toward the acquisition and maintenance of that land, protecting it from development forever.  You can choose to run/walk 10K, 5K, or 1 mile. Please sign up and secure your spot!

Course: A scenic, rolling hills course on grass and gravel that is great for both beginners and “seasoned” trailblazers.  The courses begin and end at the headquarters. Since this is a run on nature’s trails, the course will be as close to 1 mile and 5K and 10K as we can get! 

Race Results: The race will be professionally timed by the Bryn Mawr Racing Co. Results will be found at http://www.brynmawrracing.com
 
Giveaways: Your race entry fee includes a race t-shirt! Guarantee your size before 4/1/22. Refreshments and prizes after the race. Children 12 and under are free.

Our Mission Statement/other info:  Founded in 1970, the mission of the Pennypack Ecological Restoration Trust is to steward the Pennypack Preserve natural area as an important component of the region’s natural areas network, and to educate and encourage people to enjoy and protect the preserve’s native ecosystems. This 4th annual trail run/walk will help protect the 850+ acres of open space the Pennypack Preserve encompasses.  Thank you for supporting PERT’s efforts.

Pets are not welcome on the Preserve or at the race. No Dogs.
