The 2020 Philadelphia Marathon Weekend of events including the AACR Philadelphia Marathon, the Dietz & Watson Philadelphia Half-Marathon, the Rothman Orthopaedics 8k and the Dunkin’ Munchkin Kids Run has been cancelled. The City of Philadelphia along with input from the Philadelphia Health Department made the difficult decision to cancel the races due to ongoing coronavirus health and safety concerns for runners, spectators, volunteers, staff and the many partners and community organizations that support the events scheduled for November 20-22, 2020.
