The bridge is not really that steep about a 3 1/2% grade and since I have run it a few times I am prepared for it. I have heard a lot of comments from people saying that the run into philly is not too bad but the run back into camden is harder, maybe from pushing too hard on the first part. I think if you just take it a little easier you should do fine. After you get off of the bridge the rest of the course is basically flat.
