Have Your “Rocky” Moment!
Philadelphia is known for its famous attractions: Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, the Betsy Ross House, the Barnes Foundation, the Rodin Museum, the Fairmount Water Works, and of course, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, with its iconic staircase and “Rocky” statue.
You’ll take in some – or all! – of these sites when you participate in Philadelphia Marathon Weekend (Nov. 20-22, 2026).
Whether you run the Rothman Orthopaedics 8K, the Dietz & Watson Half Marathon, or the Philadelphia Marathon, you can help protect the planet while experiencing the City of Brotherly Love by running with Racing for Sustainability.
RFS envisions a world where sustainability is as integral to a race as the start and finish lines. By supporting us, you’ll be helping racing events reduce waste, conserve resources, and foster a culture of environmental responsibility within the running community.
