KICK OFF THE NEW YEAR WITH THE SWARTHMORE RECREATION ASSOCIATION!

The SRA New Year's Day 5K is a fun Swarthmore tradition that the whole family can enjoy. Ring in the new year walking or jogging through our beautiful borough of Swarthmore. Our USTAF-certified 5K course begins near the Swarthmore College Fieldhouse, winds through town, and ends on the Swarthmore College Track. A fun kids dash (free, no registration required) will take place at 11:30am.

BIB AND SHIRT PICK UP:

For racers registered by December 28th, bib and shirt will be at Bryn Mawr Running Company in Media, PA on Tuesday, December 30 from 3:30-5:30 pm.

CHILD WATCH:

Do you and your backup kid-watcher both want to run? Onsite babysitting will be provided by SRAs teen sports mentors for potty-trained youngsters aged 4-12 in the Swarthmore College Fieldhouse. This is only for children of registered runners and space is very limited. After you register for the race, sign up here [https://go.teamsnap.com/forms/506343].
