    ![Participant in Philly Race](/sites/default/files/styles/no_sizing/public/images/Philly.png?itok=GEjT12GL)  The Parkinson's Foundation is an official charity partner for the 2026 Philadelphia Marathon Weekend. By signing up to run as a Parkinson's Champion you commit to raising funds and awareness for the Parkinson's Foundation, and in return you get access to a free entry (bib) to the race in addition to tons of other fun benefits and perks.

Register to run now at [PDChampionsPhilly.org](https://secure.parkinson.org/site/TR?fr_id=6336&pg=entry).

**Fundraising Commitments:**

- Marathon - $1,500
- Half Marathon - $1,000 (SOLD OUT)
- 8k - $750

*\*Do you have your own bib? Do you have a runner under age 18 to register? Email for details.*

Expect beautiful views through Fairmount Park and along the Schuylkill River and neighborhood crowds gathering on sidewalks in University City and Manayunk. Weave through the well-traveled streets of the historic district, passing sights familiar to Franklin, Washington and the rest of the gang, and end your race speeding towards the steps of the majestic Art Museum. The Philadelphia marathon is a beautiful, fast, flat and scenic course and you’ll set a PR while support people living with Parkinson’s and research toward a cure.

*PLEASE NOTE: The Philadelphia Half Marathon &amp; 8k will occur on the Saturday of race weekend. The Full Marathon will occur on the Sunday.*

Are you looking for a fun way to volunteer for the Parkinson's Foundation &amp; raise your voice while raising awareness? Come out and cheer on our incredible athletes! Learn more and apply at [Parkinson.org/ChampionsCheer](http://www.parkinson.org/ChampionsCheer).
