wissahickon trail classic 2009

Thank you for participating in the 2009 Wissahickon Trail Classic.

The Wissahickon Trail Classic benefits the environmental restoration work of the Wissahickon Restoration Volunteers in the Wissahickon Park. We had a glorious day for the race, and everyone had a great time. This race is becoming a real showcase event. Over 500 participants registered for the race, the largest number since the race started in 2006. A special thank-you to all the wonderful volunteers who helped make the event a success. Come back next year for the 5th Annual Wissahickon Trail Classic!
