g. r. from Texas (10/18/2013)
"Great first part but lonely second part" (about: 2011)

6-10 previous marathons | 1 Maratona do Recife
COURSE: 4  ORGANIZATION: 3  FANS: 2


It starts out heading south along a great coast, then doubles back to the start. All great, for the 1st half. Then it heads north and doubles back to the start/finish. Quite isolated on 2nd part. Be prepared for torrential rains and wind.

"flat but hot" (General Comments)

4-5 previous marathons | 3 Maratona do Recife s
COURSE: 3  ORGANIZATION: 3  FANS: 3


I have run three times, there are no hills, but it is very hot and humid. The best part of the race are the last 20 km, when you run at the beautiful Boa Viagem beach and at Recife downtown, among its two rivers and many bridges. This is the only marathon at the north of Brazil, so we have always to congratulate the organization.

"Needs directions at the intersections" (about: 2003)


COURSE: 4  ORGANIZATION: 2  FANS: 3


What a delightful group of people that organized this marathon! Being welcomed by this group made up for all the deficits. Some deficits include: start at 6:00 am sharp, not 6:30, to avoid more heat, make sure ALL the intersections have someone directing runners, including for the slower runners (more than one of us got lost, some for more than an hour), do not omit the first 5K water stop, and have more toilet facilities at the start.
