THE COURSE

It's a Half Marathon, but it's not half a triumph! Run 13.1 challenging miles through some of the most scenic and historic neighborhoods of Philadelphia. From the history-steeped streets of Olde City, through one of the liveliest stretches of Center City, across the bridge through the campuses of University City, up through the picturesque routes of Fairmount Park, and back down along the Schuylkill River.

The Half Marathon was added to Race Weekend in 2006 and has grown every year since. It has served as the perfect way for first-timers to test the waters of a Marathon experience, and it's a great event for runners just looking for a challenge on a beautiful and scenic course.
