Iconic, spine tingling, epic
-
The start of the race. From the national anthem to the F16 fighter jets and when you cross that start line, you know you are a part of something special.
-
The race itself from around 17 miles. You are tackling the Newton hills and it’s make or break in your push for glory.
-
Most certainly for your flat road runners. But I’d say to everyone in the running community - even if you have a small inkling you may be tempted to run it, then just go ahead and experience it.
-
Train on downhills and condition your legs. Definitely wear sun screen!
-
Savour every moment of the race if you can, it’s a tough one to qualify for so you’ll have earned it.
It’s the most iconic road marathon you can possibly do.
