Phillies fans are in for a treat as the team announces its 15th annual Phillies Charities 5K, which will take place on Sunday, March 23, 2025, at Citizens Bank Park and surrounding South Philadelphia streets. The 3.1-mile run will start and finish at the ballpark, with participants getting to experience the thrill of running on the field and taking home some fantastic swag.
This year's event promises to be an exciting one, with fun surprises, live music, and special appearances by the Phanatic, Phillies alumni, and Phillies Ballgirls throughout the course. Runners will also get to enjoy a cool-down lap around the warning track on the field at Citizens Bank Park after crossing the finish line, weather permitting.
Registration is now open, and fans are encouraged to sign up early as last year's event sold out. The cost of registration is $55, with proceeds benefiting Phillies Charities Inc. Participants must be at least 13 years old to sign up, and there is no virtual option available.
As for the swag, runners will receive four tickets to a select Phillies home game in April 2025, a long-sleeve tech shirt, a 20% discount coupon for the New Era Phillies Team Store, a finisher medal, and a personalized bib. They will also get a reusable clear cinch bag to carry all their gear.
