Blobfest Half Marathon
The Blobfest Half Marathon is a 13.1 mile road race held in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania as part of the town's Blobfest celebration. The course starts and finishes in front of the Historic Colonial Theatre on Bridge Street. The event date is July 12, 2026, and the half marathon entry fee is $75.00. Registration opens on 12/08/2025 and closes on 04/12/2026.
Organizers enforce a strict 3:30 course cut off for the half marathon; walkers are encouraged to use the 5K or 10K instead. Multiple staffed water and hydration stops are placed along the course at the following mile markers: 1, 3.1, 4.7, 6.55, 7.3, 9.2, 11.1, and 11.8. Runners who register for the half may choose to drop down to the 10K or 5K on race day.
Packet pickup is available Saturday, July 11 from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm at the RUNegades table at the Blobfest Street Fair on Bridge Street, and on race day beginning at 6:00 am near the start/finish area in front of the Colonial Theatre. Free off-site parking is available at Phoenixville Middle School with a free shuttle; half marathon runners are asked to park there only if they have picked up their bibs the day before. Every finisher in the half marathon receives a Blob-themed medal. A portion of registration fees and all donations support the Historic Colonial Theatre.
