PHILADELPHIA - The City of Philadelphia announced Tuesday a new preliminary date for the Philadelphia Marathon.
The Philadelphia Marathon will return November 19 through 21. While the Philadelphia Marathon Weekend is planned to go off without a hitch, there will be a reduced number of runners scaled down to 50%. "While canceling the 2020 Philadelphia Marathon Weekend was necessary, it was still a difficult announcement to make," said Mayor Jim Kenney.
Mayor Kenney also added, "We are excited as we plan for the return of an iconic Philadelphia event, and we’re committed to creating the safest environment for our staff, athletes, volunteers, and partners.
