Event Description

Phoenixville Cross-Country invites you to discover how amazing a place Phoenixville is to run!  Offering a variety of race distances to participate in, The Phoenixville Distance Project: Virtual Race Series allows runners to engage in a race of their choosing - 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon - in the amazing running town and community that is Phoenixville.  Our goal is to support the strong running community already present in Phoenixville - and to get others active and appreciative of all the town has to offer!  Proceeds from the virtual race series benefit the Phoenixville Cross-Country program.  All participants will receive an official Phoenixville Distance Project race shirt!
