COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 4 Course has wonderful views and good mix of rolling hills. Traffic on roads was a bit congested; might be an issue if the race field becomes larger. | |

"tough course, beautiful surroundings" (about: 2007)
First Marathon
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 3 First 15 miles were good but from 16/17 miles, it was very hard going with two terrible hills. The run to the finishing line up another steep incline was so cruel. | |

COURSE: 3 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 3 It was very hilly but a good challenge, and one that I am glad to complete. We camped on-site and were treated well. Everyone was friendly and our children had a wonderful day out at the Brathay Fun Day. | |

"Brilliant, well organized, scenic, hilly race" (about: 2007)
4-5 previous marathons
| 1 Windermere Marathon (UK)
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 3 Brilliant venue and well organized. Thought the second half on the busy, narrow A592 (not closed) was a nightmare for runners and motorists. Can't this be closed for two hours? There are alternative routes for cars. The finish could be better marshaled - lots of spectators getting in the way of tired runners coming in. Otherwise a great day out and a memorable race. |
