For a first time marathon this was superb. Toilets at every water stop, even more established Marathons do not provide them. The scenery was wonderful, the volunteers innumerable, no one could get lost in this race. But the ultimate joy was at the end, when I was given 'coupons' that enabled me to buy a real microbrewed beer and real food, not the usual bagel etc. The finish line was in the middle of a block party. This Marathon deserves to survive, and other runs should copy its skill and professionalism.
