Pen & Pencil Club

We make our inaugural run to Pen & Pencil Club, Philadelphia's only surviving press club & Center City's only late night bar! While membership is available to reporters and friends of journalism, they’re opening their doors to FBR for an evening. There is no dinner service on-site, but there is a crockpot of free hot dogs!

*Note: while smoking is not allowed while we are there, there is sometimes smoking on-site. They have a good ventilation system, but if you are very sensitive to the smell, it may be noticeable.

Weather Policy
We are an all-weather running club, however, use your own judgement regarding running in inclement weather. Summer thunderstorms usually come and go quickly, so check the weather radar for the most up-to-date forecast. Safety is paramount and you should not run during lightning storms. Shelter-in-place if caught during a lightning storm and/or consider alternative options for getting to the bar. Remember, no questions asked.
