Phoenix River Rat 10K Run
The Phoenix River Rat 10K is a road race held in Phoenix, New York, on August 21, 2027. It is the event's second running and follows the original course used when the race drew a large following in the mid 1980s through the early 1990s.
The loop course runs along the Oswego River for its entire length and is described as flat and fast. The route begins at North Island at Lock 1, crosses the Oswego River on the Phoenix Bridge, then heads north on Pendergast Road with views of fields, woods, and riverside homes. At the halfway point the course turns right to cross the single lane Hinmansville Bridge, built in 1915. A short stretch on a packed dirt road through woods connects to River Road for the return into the village and a finish at Lock 1.
Event details include a single race distance of 10 km. Registration opens on November 22, 2026 and closes on December 31, 2026; the listed registration fee is $35.00. Funds raised from the event will support the Schroeppel Historical Society. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
