The Philadelphia Marathon gives the following descriptive information:

Since our first race in 1994, we have grown from a small local event to one of the top-10 marathons in the country.

Our beautiful and scenic course takes runners past historic landmarks like Independence Hall, Benjamin Franklin's Burial Place, the National Constitution Center and the Liberty Bell, through urban neighborhoods such as Old City, University City, South Philadelphia and Manayunk, and along the picturesque waterfronts of the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers.
