I had a wonderful race with my husband on Nov 6th. It was my first Marathon in the states and I was so impressed with the high level of the organization, the incredible encouragement from the crowd as well as the support of the huge numbers of volunteers giving us

Easy to get there, easy to manage. Great crowds but also plenty of quiet stretches. Great medals. Great array of food at the finish including coffee cups of chicken broth, much appreciated on a cold, windy day. I could come to Philly and do this race every year.

Loved the flatness and trails of this race, but wish there would've been more crowd support and motivation.
