 "Beautiful Course" (General Comments)
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 This course is so beautiful especially on a sunny day. I have run this course several times, and I go to Vancouver outside of marathon time to use is it as training, as it is very inspirational. The route is set up so that you see every part of the city as well as lots of lush foliage. The mountains in the background are spectacular and the ocean air is nice and fresh as you are running. On a sunny day lots of spectators will come out (not as much as Boston or New York) and they are all locals wishing you the best. | |

 "Perfect Weather" (about: 2000)
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 The weather (2000) was perfect. Sunny and cool. The course is nice except there are areas where you retrace the route. (There is one bridge you cross three times!) Around the half-way point, you run through Stanley Park, which is very nice. It is a good way to see the city of Vancouver. Organization was great. Plenty of water, and the best photography of any marathon I've been entered. The people are very supportive. The host hotel provides regular bus transportation to and from the marathon. Superbly run, I will be back. | |

"It's a great way to see the city!" (General Comments)
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 The weather gods were smiling on the runners this year as we had sunshine all the way and the temperature didn't get too high. The marathon route takes you through parts of downtown and along the waterfront to Stanley Park over towards UBC and back to the finish at B.C. Place. This is a well organized run and it sems to get better every year. Not too many hills and very scenic. I would recommend this to other runners for sure. |
