Running for Answers (RFA) is a 5K Run/Walk and Kids' Fun Run in Philadelphia that raises funds and awareness for the Desmoid Tumor Research Foundation.
The RFA 5K & Fun Run is back IN PERSON in Philadelphia on Sun., 9/24/23!
*IMPORTANT* All RFA news will be posted to DTRF’s social channels. WE ARE PHASING OUT THIS ACCOUNT. Please take a minute to follow us @dtrfoundation to be kept up to date on race registration. #RFA
With the race officially postponed, many have asked about getting a refund if they can't make the race date. If you can't make it on Oct. 4, you can transfer your bib to someone else to get your money back that way. And the $15 fee is waived! Learn more: https://t.co/MQ8KEjbc48
Race organizers and @PhiladelphiaGov have decided to postpone the 2020 @ibxrun10 to October 4, 2020. Thank you for your support and understanding during this time and please stay safe. (1/2)
During such a challenging time, we hope that you're find ways to *keep moving*. Check out @PhillyRun
virtual group for runners/walkers. Join + post your *solo* selfies... we want to see those s(miles).
Take good care and be safe, all #keepphillyrunning
