This is Philly’s only race to promote and benefit dog rescue.  Previous year's races were a sell-out events and the proceeds we raise on race day help to fund our rescue organization throughout the year.  Don’t delay – you don’t want to miss out on this one of a kind, award-winning race.    Register now!

 

Register, volunteer or sponsor.

Date:  November 2nd, 2019! 

Location: FDR PARK

Race Perks:  Chip timing, tech-tees for all participants, customizable personal and team fundraising pages, and feel-good warm-fuzzies know that you ran for rescue!

More Info:  To register for the race or sign up to volunteer on race day, please visit The Rescue Run 5K website. Check out more information about our 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 events.

 

After the race we host a Rescue Rally with adoptable pets from local shelters, local vendors and delicious eats from local food trucks.  Everyone is invited to the Rescue Rally, not only racers.  Come out for a celebratory event and meet some of Philadelphia’s adoptable running partners.
