"Fast course, smooth running surface" (about: 2019)

COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 3 Good start which didn't hold me up even though I was about 400 or so runners back. You would need to be in the pens very early if you want to be in pole position. Route takes you through the centre up river then you turn back and head out to the coast before returning back to the centre and the finish next to the Tower. Good crowd and atmosphere at the finish. Thing that I really liked was the running surface - tarmac all the way and some very smooth straight sections, no cobbles anywhere. Weather in 2019 was perfect for running but on a windy day you would be quite exposed in some places. Flat course with just 3 or 4 short elevated river/road bridges. PB course if the weather is good. Expo is about 10 mins walk from centre. You can also get showered at the Expo venue afterwards - there's a mini-train to shuttle you back and forth on Marathon day. Pisa airport was a pleasant surprise - clearly they've invested in it recently. |
