I have run this race twice and had a great experience both times. It is a smaller race than the usual big Philly ones. You run the 8.5 mile loop along Kelly Drive. They do not shut down the roads so you stay on the pathway the entire time. It was surprisingly nice to run like that and it never felt crowded. As always, the scenery is amazing with boat house row and everything on the river. There is a slight incline at two different points but nothing you would call an actual hill. 2020 went virtual due to the pandemic but it is back IRL this year and I can't wait to do it!
