← MK Marathon Weekend
Milton Keynes Marathon, you were brilliant! I ran this marathon with a friend and we had a great day. This review is therefore for the marathon distance.
Pros
Loads and loads of loos, and proper loos, at the start. With toilet paper. Bliss.
Plenty of water stations with portaloos (roughly every three miles)
Very well marshalled with a fair amount of support along the way (some quieter parts but mostly good). And the marshals were brilliant. Huge thanks to them.
Brilliant medal and a tech T-shirt
Stadium finish which is brilliant
Lovely scenery/countryside,/village route
Cons
It would have been good for the pacers to have flags rather than balloons. The half marathon pacers do so why not the full? The pacer was difficult to spot at the start line because of this.
I’d definitely do this race again.
