AARC Phil's Tavern 5K : Ambler, PA
The Phil's Tavern 5K, organized by the Ambler Area Running Club, is a community road race on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, using the traditional Phil's Tavern course with start and finish near Shady Grove Elementary School in Ambler, Pennsylvania. The event is presented as a local competitive 5K that supports youth programs in the region.
Registration is priced at $15 to keep entry affordable; an optional technical race shirt is available for $10. Participants may make an optional donation to the race beneficiaries: Wissahickon Valley Boys and Girls Club and Students Run Philly Style. The race is planned to proceed rain or shine unless cancelled for safety or other emergency. No refunds and no bib transfers are permitted.
Because of limitations on road closures, the course is designed for runners only and cannot accommodate walkers. Chip timing will be used for official results. Course support includes water stops, post-race refreshments provided by The Phils Tavern, and indoor restrooms.
Awards are based on chip time and include overall 1st through 3rd open male and female, masters 1st through 3rd male and female, and the top three finishers in each ten-year age group. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
