The Philadelphia Distance Run (PDR) is a historically iconic race, for amateur and elite runners alike. It was a mainstay on the Philadelphia streets from 1978 to 2009, until it changed hands and name. In fall of 2021, it is back and better than ever. The return of the PDR will include free bibs for low-income runners, having non-binary prize money match male and female prize money, and prioritizing minority owned vendors.
