Rocky Run presented by Athletifreak takes place in the heart of Philadelphia on November 14, 2026. The event brings together about 30,000 runners and uses Rocky themed branding and imagery throughout the race experience.
Race formats include multiple distances and a multi-race challenge:

- 13.1 Italian Stallion Challenge: 5K and 10 Mile in one day
The event offers finisher items and race apparel. Participants can receive three finisher medals and an official race shirt as part of the event offerings. The 13.1 Italian Stallion Challenge awards three medals for completing the combined races on the same day.
The event includes a fundraising option for Special Olympics. Participants who raise at least $250 for Special Olympics are noted to receive a free entry to the 2026 Rocky Run. Several partners and sponsors are associated with the event, and Rocky Run materials reference official Rocky and Rocky Balboa trademarks and imagery.
