Schuylkill River Map

The map below shows "the loop" along the Schuylkill River. Kelly Drive is on the right (east) side, with King Drive (formerly West River Drive) on the opposite. The loop is a flat 8.5 miles. The Kelly Drive path is wide and smooth in great condition. The King Drive (formerly West River Drive) path is not as wide, but on the weekend during the day from April to October, the actual ROAD is closed to auto traffic

8am Memorial Day to Labor Day

Tuesday evenings at 6:30pm

All are welcome. The runs start and end at the bottom of the front steps to the Philadelphia Museum of Art (if you are facing the art museum, we're on the right). We wait a little bit back at the museum for others to return. We generally run along the Kelly Drive path on Tuesday and both the King Drive (formerly West River Drive) and Kelly Drive paths on Saturday.

For these all-skills runs, we split into multiple groups based on pace and distance, so you can run with whichever group best matches your skill. All levels of runners are welcome to attend, though elite/Olympic runners might be a little bored! Hey, you can still join us for one of your "easy" runs! On Saturdays, most people run from 4 - 8.5 miles, at paces of 6:00 - 11:00 minutes per mile. We have faster & slower paces, longer & shorter distances, but the above holds for most. On Tuesdays, most run from 4.4 - 6 miles, at paces of 6:00 - 11:00.

Other unofficial runs also occur. Anyone who has come to our runs and/or activities may lead an ad hoc run or suggest a permanent new run.
