Vanishing Half-Marathon
“๐๐ข๐ณ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ช๐ข ๐๐ฆ๐ค๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐๐ข๐ด๐ด๐ถ๐ด…”โฃ โฃ Potterhead Running Club is pleased to present our fourth event of 2019:โฃ โฃ ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐-๐๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ก๐จ๐ง!โฃ โฃ For our fourth event of 2019, we’re exploring another mysterious magical object used by witches and wizards for both good and evil purposes for years: The Vanishing Cabinet. During the first Wizarding War, many used vanishing cabinets to swiftly disappear if Death Eaters paid them a visit. Later on, a pair of vanishing cabinets, one at Borgin & Burkes […]
Pensieve 10k
Potterhead Running Club is pleased to present our third event of 2019: ๐ซย The Pensieve 10k!ย ๐ซ For this event, we’re diving into the mysterious magical object used by Hogwarts headmasters (and Harry, of course) to examine and re-live memories. Legend has it that the founders of Hogwarts found the Pensieve half buried in the ground, and supposedly one of the reasons the school was located in such a remote location. In the dark days leading up to the Second Wizarding War, […]
Slug Club Armchair to 5k
Potterhead Running Club is pleased to present our second event of 2019: The Slug Club Armchair to 5k! Professor Horace Slughorn is a wonderfully complex character and proof that while a Slytherin might desire power and influence, they can also be chivalrous and selfless. Despite the fact that he was born in a pure-blood family (one of the so-called “Sacred Twenty Eight”), he wasn’t prejudiced against half-bloods and muggle-borns and frequently “collected” those students into his “Slug Club” if they […]
"Every single mile I earn these days is all for charity, specifically for PHRC. These groups are what keep me going. They're some of the best supporters I've ever had. They hold me up when I'm down, they make me laugh when I'm sad, and they push me to be a better person every day."

HUFFLEPUFF
"I ended up completing 49 miles in less than a week. In a normal week, I would've completed 18 in the same time frame. My body hurts and my friends think I'm crazy, but there's nowhere else I'd rather be than flying with you lot. We pushed ourselves to the breaking point while supporting a fantastic charity!"
Beth
RAVENCLAW
"Today I got on the treadmill and struggled so, so hard, but I summoned my 'snek' reserves and "one more, one more"-d myself all the way to 10 miles in just under 2 hours. I totes cried in my car in the parking lot afterward because I finally made it to double digits. Y'all give me strength when I have no gas left, and I am inspired daily by my amazing dungeon-mates."
Melanie
SLYTHERIN
"Each and every one of you, from the Amyโs to the Zoeโs, from Claws to Puffs, should consider yourselves friends to people around the world, support to people you donโt know, and genuinely good people. You should be proud of yourselves. Not only are you supporting amazing charities, but youโre supporting other people. And that is genuine kindness."

"This has been a great opportunity to organize all our local chapters to do something fun and warm together. So, thank you to the Potterhead Running Club! It continues to be such a delight to work with you all. A thousand thanks!"
Ashley Kilpatrick, VP of Development
BACK ON MY FEET
"I really feel like this was such a meaningful collaboration in so many ways. The PHRC community is seriously one of the most encouraging we've encountered. I am so grateful for all the hard work your team put in across every front."
Lindsay Kolsch, Operations Coordinator
TWLOHA
"Thank you for going above and beyond to help those in need and welcoming our supporters into the PHRC community with open arms. It has been so much fun working with you and your team and I hope that we can continue to partner in the future."
