Philadelphia’s Broad Street Run 10 Miler Race

The Broad Street Run 10 Miler in Philadelphia is the largest 10 Miler in the world and my favorite race. In 2020, I ran my 7th consecutive year and I’ve run twice second in the pouring rain. Part of the fun is the road trip from Washington, DC to Philadelphia and exploring the expo.

Rain-or-Shine Runners

This race is always exciting, rain or shine, because the volunteers and cheering spectators keep runners pumped all 10 miles. Broad Street Run is a lottery race held on the first Sunday in May. Registration opens in February so mark your calendars and I’ll see you there. Visit Independence Blue Cross Broad Street Run to learn more about the best 10 miler in the world!

Best Philly Cheesesteak and Donuts in Philadelphia

The Best Philly Cheesesteak and Donuts in Philadelphia without a doubt are Max’s and Beiler’s Doughnuts. I came to Philly to run the Broad Street Run 10 Miler and my annual “PreRace Ritual” includes eating Beiler’s Doughnuts and Max’s Cheesesteak. In this video, I’ll taste test a new doughnut and show you how Max’s cooks the best cheesesteak in Philly. I’ve tasted many but none compare.

Max’s is a mood and a guaranteed good time of laughter, jams, and drinks with the locals! A MUST visit and the best cheesesteak in Philadelphia. Max’s is the best Philly cheesesteak in Philadelphia.

Beiler’s Doughnuts is located in Reading Terminal Market in Center City. This is one of the best and oldest Farmers Market in the USA and a national treasure. Beiler’s doughnuts are fresh no matter what time you arrive, even at the close of business.
