Run for Coffee Lovers 5K/10K/13.1 PHILADELPHIA

The Run for Coffee Lovers 5K/10K/13.1 Philadelphia is a coffee-themed group run offering 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances. It utilizes small, capped waves for staggered starts at 7:30, 8:00, and 8:30 AM, rather than a single large start. Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome; participants under 18 require a guardian. This event is structured as a supported community run, not a chip-timed competition. Timing is optional, and participants may use apps like Strava, RunKeeper, or Nike Run to track their progress. The event simplifies logistics with no packet pickup; shirts are mailed to US addresses, and bibs are distributed on race day. Registration includes a running T-shirt, a finisher medal, a giveaway item such as a towel, a digital training pack, online results, a completion certificate, and an invitation to join local running clubs. Coordinators remain for three hours post-first wave, allowing latecomers to participate. Waves can fill rapidly, and sold-out participants are directed to a waitlist or a virtual run option.
