great as home race but downhill wrecked my knee

OK but confusing due to so many relay runners

Well organised event with great crowd support.

Great crowd & atmosphere, finish was a bit messy

Great for a relay race, otherwise forget it!

Really starting to lose faith in this one...!

organized but poorly supported outside the city

Great day out (relay) but lots and lots to improve

Great support, but not so generous with the water

Sadly, still plenty of room for improvement

Sponsored By Deed River Rock... but not a drop!

good day out apart from not enough energy stations

Well organized marathon; I enjoyed it very much.

This new course is excluding parts of Belfast.

Excellent friendly and fun first marathon

Good marathon, but very poor organization 

Good run, shaving 1 min. and 10 sec. off my best

Huge civic enterprise, interesting urban location
