    Florida flat or rest of the world flat? Joking

     

    I might consider Philly.  Need DH's OK since I'm having too many registration accidents for next year.

     

    It's along river so it's flat. Well flatter than most PA half marathons.

        Almost flat then, but not Florida flat. Joking

         

        Very flat, though.  Hmmm.

          That was Proofreader/Joanne. Her RR made me swear off RnR races. I just can't condone their behavior.

              No, RnR Philly is only a half. There is a Philadelphia Full and Half in November, different course, different organization.

                ^This, but the marathon in November also offers a 8k and HM too I believe. Starts at same point as RnR I believe too by Art Museum. I am 80/20 that Philly will be my fall marathon too.

                  Note that Philly marathon is not flat by FL standards. Even some locals object to calling it flat.

                    RnR Philly, however, is flatter than any race I have done anywhere.

                          I will likely be running this since I live here. I don't care for Competitor, but I like the course for the most part and the weather has been perfect the last 2 years. I'm sure next year, we'll be in the midst of a heatwave come start time :P.
