Pick Your Way 5.3 Miler

AT THE "STRONG SUGGESTION" of the City of Philadelphia Office of Risk Management we are postponing the 2026 Souper Bowl 5K

due to the expected conditions at race time and the heavy exposure at the Northeast Philadelphia Airport. In keeping with the information below we have requested the July 25, 2026, race date, keeping with the opening of TRAINING CAMP. As soon as that is approved we will reopen registration. We will be starting at 8:30AM and the give away will change from a soup mug to a pint glass.

Super Football Weekend

There’s a new race, coming to Northeast Philly on the Saturday before the BIG GAME!

A 5K on a shorter version of the NorFEAST 4 Miler course, along the Northeast Philadelphia Airport bike path.

The turn around will be near Avalon Street along Academy Road.

Like the big game we’ll have a late start.

Packet Pick-Up and Late Registration beings at 10:00AM inside Northeast SkateZone.

The race doesn’t start until 11:00AM so you can sleep in on Saturday (hopefully it will warm up a bit after sunrise) and still make the start of the race!

There may even be halftime entertainment!

Bathroom facilities are also INDOORS!

THIS CHANGE: SOUP MUGS & spoons TO THOSE REGISTERED BY January 17, 2026 We ordered some extra so there's still a chance you'll get one

SOUP at the finish! Please do not take food back inside SkateZone.

MEDALS

In keeping with the tradition of races at this location we'll be giving out a themed medal, but it will not be the same boring traditional race finisher medal.

We're hoping cheerleaders will send you off and welcome you back to the finish. If you know a group that would like to come out, we would love to hear from you.

Gridiron themed awards for the top three men and women overall and in these age groups:

19 & Under, 20-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60+ Women, 60-69 Men, 70+ Men

Age groups may be altered depending on registration demographics

Additionally we will awards $100 runBUCKS CrackedBell gift cards to the first man and woman wearing the winning team’s colors on race day. We won’t know that until about 11PM on Sunday February 8, 2026. (Colors means official gear not just a shirt that may match the colors of each team in the big game.)

POST RACE OPEN SKATE

Northeast SkateZone is extending an offer to attend Public Skating after the race for the reduced group price of $13 per person. Sign up during the registration process, in the “STORE” section.

WEATHER

Race Director reserves the right to alter or shorten the course due to weather and/or conditions of the road. Should roads be undrivable or the path be unrunnable on race day we will reschedule of a date near the beginning of training camp (warm weather)

Especially for this race we suggest you sign up (during registration questions) to receive text messaging concerning the race

Should 19154 5K need to reschedule to our date. You can make the 1.7 miles from St Anselm's to SkateZone in 6 minutes.

Their race starts at 9:15AM. Our race begins at 11AM

ABOUT THE SOUP

The soup for 2026 will be a tomato bouillon with chicken stock base and Alphabet Soup Pasta. Sorry no substitutes to vegans and those with wheat allergies
