Event comments:

What a fun race. Very well organized for the size. Venue was great. Beautiful weekend in Philly. The live bands were awesome, and I think that drew even more people to come out and cheer. The post race concert was great. My wife and I are now planning on signing up for Rock 'n' Roll races in other towns to check them out!
