Course & Travel Notes

The Heart and Sole Fun Run takes place in Wayne, Pennsylvania on October 4th, 2026, with an early 9:30 AM start time—so you'll definitely want to catch that 7:01 AM sunrise if you're an early riser. You'll be running at a modest elevation of 220 feet, which is pretty gentle on the legs. Fly into Philadelphia International Airport, which is just 17.8 miles away, and pack layers since early October weather in this area typically ranges from a high of 67°F down to 44°F, with about a quarter of the days bringing some rain. It's a great time of year to visit, so just keep an eye on the forecast and bring a light rain jacket just in case.
