I am running the Philly marathon for the first time this year. Any advice/ tips about about the course, etc would be much appreciated.

Mostly flat for the first 7 miles, hills at 8 and 9 (going up to the zoo is the steepest/longest of the course). From mile 13 to the end its along the river, a few rolling hills but nothing really impressive. Not many spectators for the last 13 (out and back along the river) except for the turn around at mile 20, so no Boston/NYC experience of thousands cheering you for the last 6 miles.
You run with the half marathoners for the first 13 so lots of packs to tuck into. The pack thins out a lot after mile 13.
Thats all you need to know^^^
Thanks so much! I really appreciate the help.
