Independence
                                                         Broad Street Run! This year’s race comes a
                                                         little earlier than the traditional date of the first
                                                         Sunday in May, but the nation’s largest 10-mile
                                                         road race is back and better than ever!
                                                         After three years of health guidelines in place on
                                                         race day, the 2023 race will see a return to over
                                                         36,000 runners and many of the most beloved
                                                         Broad Street traditions.
                                                         Spectators will once again line the course
                                                         with funny signs and encouraging shouts.
                                                         Cheer zones with live music will entertain
                                                         and keep up the energy. Loved ones can once
                                                         again meet runners at the finish line, where
                                                         there will be plenty of family-friendly activities.
                                                         There’s nothing like the Independence Blue Cross Broad Street Run.
                                                         It celebrates everything that makes Philadelphia Philly: community, spirit,
                                                         and a no-quit attitude. The whole city is energized and inspired by you.
                                                         Thank you to everyone who is participating in this year’s Independence

                                                         We can’t do this race without you!
                                                         We also can’t do it without our race partner Independence Blue Cross.
                                                         I want to thank them for their 27 years of support and commitment to
                                                         making this race a fun, healthy highlight for our city, year after year.
                                                         For the fourth year, we are also offering a virtual-run option for those
                                                         unable to join us on race day.
                                                         I’m encouraging everyone to come out and witness your athleticism,
                                                         commitment, and tenacity. There’s no better feeling than crossing the
                                                         finish line, whether it’s your first Independence Blue Cross Broad Street Run

“It’s a very special day for our company and for
                                           Philadelphia when we celebrate the Independence
                                           Blue Cross Broad Street Run. I am so excited to
                                           see more than 36,000 runners — about a third of
                                           whom are IBX members — cross the starting line
                                           again at the nation’s best 10-mile race.
                                          As the proud title sponsor of this event for 27 years,
                                           we remain committed to the well-being of the
                                          community we serve. In our 85th anniversary year,
                                          we continue to pursue equitable, whole-person
                                          health for our neighbors in Greater Philadelphia
                                          and beyond.
                                          In recent months we’ve seen athletics bring this
                                          city together through the achievements of our
                                          professional sports teams. Now it’s your turn!
                                          I wish you a safe and fun run, and hope you meet
                                          your personal goals.”
