SunTrust Richmond Marathon When: November 14, 2009 Where: Richmond, Va. Why do it: Dubbed "America's Friendliest Marathon" by Runner's World
magazine, the Suntrust Richmond Marathon offers many of the benefits of
a big city marathon while maintaining a small-town feel. Runners keep
coming back year after year because of the friendly and courteous
volunteers and superb course amenities, such as junk food stops and wet
washcloths.
Philadelpia Marathon When: November 22, 2009 Where: Philadelphia. Pa. Why do it:
If you're looking for a big city marathon experience, but don't want to
deal with the crowds, Philadelphia may be a good option for you.
Philly's course treats you to historical landmarks like the Liberty
Bell, as well as the natural beauty of scenic sections along the
Schuylkill River. And, if you still have some energy left at the finish
line, you can do your best "Rocky" imitation by running up the
Philadelphia Museum of Art's steps. See this link: http://running.about.com/od/marathonsandreviews/tp/fallmarathons.htm
