Phoenix River Rat 10K Run

Join us for a historic 10K Road Race along the Oswego River starting in Phoenix NY.  This course will quickly become one of your favorites.  This race had a huge following in the mid 80's through early 90's, and we'll stick with the original course.  It's flat, fast, and beautiful as it parallels the Oswego River for the entire loop course.  You'll start at North Island at Lock 1 and immediately cross the Oswego River on the Phoenix Bridge.  You'll then run north along the river on Pendergast Road, glimpsing the river between open fields, woods, and homes along the way.  At the half way point you'll turn right to make a second crossing of the river at the single lane Hinmansville Bridge built in 1915.  A short jaunt through the woods on a packed dirt road will connect you to River Road to run back into the village of Phoenix and a finish at Lock 1.  This is a great course for first-time 10K runners.  It would also be a great prep race for your fall half marathon or marathon.

Earlybird registration just $40 through April 14, 2026!  Race fee will increase to $50 on April 15th, and $60 two weeks prior to the race.  

Funds raised will go toward supporting the Schroeppel Historical Society.  For information about sponsorship opportunities, please review our sponsor information page and contact Kim at kimmer26.2@gmail.com.

Unfortunately, due to insurance regulations, dogs and strollers are not allowed on the race course.
