I traveled from the south east to run the broad street ten miler. I would do this race again. It is pretty well organized minus septa. I did enjoy the train experience overall though. Lots of energy from the crowd throughout the entire race. The band at Temple University was great. The rocky theme song cracked me up the entire time. I would take that over the Chicago Blackhawks “Chelsea’s dagger” goal song anytime. The finish line at the navy yard is pretty dope. I love the bleachers for spectators at the end. I also enjoy the walk back to the train. Based on this trip I wouldn’t mind coming back and running the Philly marathon in the future. I see the Atlanta falcons play the Eagles in 2030 in Philly. Might luck out on that. Also props to having all your stadiums in one area. It makes sense in my eyes. So far having a blast in this city. Great city, good vibes, keep rocking on Philadelphia.
