← MK Marathon Weekend

A cracking event.

The event centre in the MK Dons stadium works really well with plenty of space, bag drop was a breeze and very well organised. The phased start prevented too much congestion. The route itself was a mixture of inner city roads, country lanes, pathways through parks, along river banks and makes a nice change from the usual suburban bore. Good support around the course, the marshals were enthusiastic and very well organised. The finish itself, inside the stadium is a perfect end to a very good, well run and well managed event with water and a very unique, well designed medal which is handed over with a huge smile as you cross the line. Baggage reclaim is polished and very efficient along with handing out goody bags & tech finishers shirts. All in all excellent, the only area which could do with improvement is parking, the VIP car park was sold out, the alternative was try and find your own, this got quite busy early on, and additional organised parking would be helpful, Great event and would recommend
