Orientations

Orientations

We ask that ONLY runners who can commit at least one run every two weeks go through orientation at this time. We have a lot of runners who can commit, and we have to give them priority. If your schedule doesn’t allow you to make that kind of commitment at this time, but you still want to help out, let us know - we may be able to utilize you in other ways. Runs take place 7 days a week, between 9AM and 6:30PM (5:30 at Grays Ferry), whenever you can get to the shelter.

To sign up for any of the orientations please email us to reserve a spot. (No walk-ins, sorry!) Please email us to reserve a spot. Email: info@themonstermilers.org

Important: There are three locations - Old City (PAWS), Grays Ferry (PAWS) and Northern Liberties (STAR). You must go through the specific shelter’s orientation in order to run at that location. (i.e. an Old City orientation would not clear you to run at Grays Ferry. The three facilities have different procedures, routes and guidelines, and thus, different orientations.) Grays Ferry is perfect for runners in University City, West Philly, Fitler Square, Grad Hospital Rittenhouse and West Philly, and is in desperate need of runners

When attending orientations, please wear comfy clothes (that you don’t mind dogs jumping on!) and sneaks. If coming right from work, you can always change in the bathroom at PAWS. If you cannot attend orientation, please give us as much notice as possible as we have hundreds of runners waiting to get through.
