← Barcelona Marathon

my 3rd Barcelona marathon and my 3rd PB so I love this place. 

Picking up the race pack is easy hassle free and I would say the EXPO is bigger than the running show I went to a few weeks ago.  

Also signed up for the breakfast run which was on the Saturday and this was a good 2.5 mile run. 

Actual race day was very well organised again

Bag drop is well organised and race pens are securely monitored so you can’t get in the wrong one. 

The race started on time which is always great. 

The whole race went really well no hiccups. 

Water stations every 2.5km with gels from 30km onwards. 

The course had a little change from previous year but I felt it worked better 

Massage after was ok but pointless really. 

Free meal after as well was nice. More bananas

 

would I race again probably not as I have done my 3 so it’s time for another European trip abroad as they are so much better than UK marathons, you get more bang for your buck. UK organisers could learn a lot from this marathon.
