The Broad Street Run is a paved, nearly flat and slightly downhill 10-miler that passes City Hall and many of Philly’s landmarks as it drops south to a roaring finish in the Navy Yard—a course prized for PRs. Starts are organized in corrals/waves, with wheelchair athletes leading out just before the main field. Families can join the festivities at the Navy Yard, where the Shriners Children’s Run and age-group dashes keep younger runners part of the day. Expect big-city logistics, packed sidelines, and a straight-shot course almost entirely on Broad Street.
