50 members in January's Ridley Park Pickle Run

In January, members of Back on My Feet – Philadelphia braved chilly temperatures to take part in the Pickle Run in Ridley Creek State Park.

Back on My Feet members raced the hilly 5k race with some great results! Non-residents Drew and Steve were 3rd and 5th overall respectively and residential member Eric placed 16th overall in under 22 minutes for his first 5k race. Overall, Back on My Feet had close to 50 members participate in this staple of the wintertime race calendar!

“Everyone ran really well, we had so much fun. Eight of our residential members ran their first race today which is always inspiring to see” said Program Coordinator Austin Gee.

Back on My Feet would like to thank Frank Durso and Tim Krueger with Run the Day race management for their support! Next up on the Back on My Feet race calendar will be the Frostbite 5-Miler on February 20th in Ambler, we hope to see you out there!
