Don't miss your chance to cross the Benjamin Franklin Bridge on foot — all for a good cause.
The Cooper Norcross Run the Bridge event, presented by AmeriHealth New Jersey, comes back to Philadelphia on Nov. 2. It benefits Larc Norcross School, a nonprofit in South Jersey that offers free, specialized education for children with multiple disabilities.
Thousands of participants are expected to take part in the 10K run, 2-mile walk, or virtual options available for both race events.
What's New for 2025?
In a first for the event, organizers are partnering with Philadelphia Runner to make race packet pickup available at its Center City location on Walnut Street. This change allows Philadelphia-based runners and walkers to participate, without having to travel to New Jersey to pick up their bibs.
According to PhillyVoice, this year's change is expected to enhance participation from across the river and will give more local runners an opportunity to be part of one of the region's most popular races.
