 "one of the top european marathons" (about: 2002)
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 2 I enjoyed the first edition: very efficient organization, one of the fastest courses I experienced, good pre and after race facilities, good value for money. So I did not hesitate to join the second edition which, I think, reached the same high standard. A negative vote to the public, somewhat indifferent, and some car drivers who did not show much understanding. | |

 "Great winter event -- but no real support" (about: 2002)
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 1 Read a lot before about the 'best ever tee-shirt' for this event -- true .. if you like shocking pink!! Overall, however, this is definitely a great European winter event and highly recommended. Around 4,500 runners this year. Started and finished at the picturesque Castella Sforezca, with a real city streets course. One drawback was the use of several 'hairpins', where you run up one side of the road while your leaders/followers run down the other; OK once, but seemed to do this a lot. Spectators looked bemused or annoyed, rather than supportive, so expect a generally quiet run. Great water and Gartorade points every 5km, but surprising that absolutely nothing after the finish line -- not even a glass of water. However, was balanced by the fact that, rather than a space blanket, a basic shower-proof (and re-usable) running jacket was provided at the end. Only other gripe was the fact the traffic police stopped me twice to allow trams to pass. Otherwise, a highly recommended race. |
