This was my first time in philly and I ran both the half and the full marathon – “The Liberty Challenge”. Here are my pros and cons list I think runners should know.
Pros: When in the city, it was great scenery. Cool historical stuff, old houses, etc. Rolling hills were manageable.
One medal was cool (dinging bell!)
The shirts are nice quality, long sleeve, and the designs are great.
Good crowds in some parts
Warming tents much appreciated.
Cons List:
Cannot bring in water which means you need to use their PLASTIC water bottles (16 oz) to fill up. They ran out of water. I know. Explain this to me.
Half Marathon course support was way smaller than the full – there was only one spot with the fruit bars and they were on the ground.
No other sugar provided on either course. Only Nuun and water.
The three medals we received (half, full and the challenge) are all the exact same with just different wording. Total bummer.
The porta-potty lines were INSANE.
The race on both days started 45 minutes late.
