Fun race. Pretty bad production

For reference I’ve ran a bunch of marathons, many in Europe.
The good:
– great crowd support (where there were crowds, not Amstel river)
– lots of bands/music
– flat scenic course
– good weather: cloudy/cool
– nice free run shirt – comes with marathon registration
The bad:
– expo wasn’t anything special
– crowded race, narrow at lots of parts with little space to run
– water stations very short: no space to grab without having to stop and wait
– crowded exit from stadium- takes forever to leave (also no water at end of race!!! Must leave stadium first!!??)
– absolutely ZERO snacks end of race “here’s your cup of water- bye bye”. Kinda sad.
I’d consider running again because course was so nice. Hopefully they realize they’re a big race and start acting like it.
