"Fun but lacking" (about: 2011)
4-5 previous marathons
COURSE: 3 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 2 The course is two laps around a lake - narrow running lanes at times, hardly any spectators. Good water stops (water, Coke, tea, bananas, etc.) about every 5/6K. Very narrow finishing lane, with 180 degree turn 100 meters before end. Course is flat, but very boring. Also, the 'relay' runners fly past you - which doesn't help the morale of the full marathoners. Had a good day, but this isn't as fun as city runs. Also, very hard to get to the starting point on public transportation - and even harder to get a taxi cab back to the hotel. | |

"Really fast, completely flat course." (about: 2001)
11-50 previous marathons
| 1 Essen Marathon
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 1 Solid organization; there are no problems to be expected. The course is completely flat and even fast. It is no city marathon - it is a marathon in nature around the Baldeney-Lake in the south of Essen. So, there are nearly no spectators at the event. The course has to be run twice. |
