On Thursday, September 10th, we will be teaming up with Fishtown Beer Runners again and heading to Frankford Hall to kick off our three year anniversary celebration. This year all funds raised will go to help our newest athlete, Tom, purchase his very own hand cycle!

Join us for the run- starting in Fishtown at 7, or just meet us at the bar, all are welcome. Details on where to meet for the run can be found at fishtownbeerrunners.com.

Spread the word, and we look forward to seeing you all out there to support the cause!

Join Philly Achilles in bridging the gap to better health and fitness.

 

We’re honored that ODDyssey Half Marathon has chosenPhilly Achilles as the benefactor of their April 7 Ben Franklin Bridge Run and Happy Hour fundraising event.

 

Philly Achilles would like to invite you to join us and other members of the Philadelphia running community for this  fun run and social gathering dedicated to bridging the gap to better health and fitness.

Philly Achilles pairs disabled Philadelphia-area athletes with trained volunteers who serve as guides and teammates. Together we can achieve our full fitness potential and a heathier life.

Not only is this event a great way to get outside for some fresh air and exercise as we welcome Spring; it’s also an opportunity to meet the incredible athletes and volunteers of Philly Achilles, hear about our mission and learn how you can join our team.

We hope you can join in the fun, and we look forward to seeing you!
