In short: Ok race once we eventually got started!!!
In full: The one thing different about this race that would probably put me off doing it again, was the amount of time we had to hang about before the race. Why do the buses leave so early?

In short: Could become a GREAT race
In full: I"ll be reasonably brief as everyone has already covered the main points.
The start/finish NEEDS to be moved either back to the Meadows or even to Holyrood park same as the great winter run. 10,000 people need space to move and the Meadows was ideal.
Also wave starts at at least two minute intervals would make a difference.

In short: Good event, worth doing.
In full: A Good, well organised race with excellent volunteers/marshalls and crowd!
Rubbish expo as they all are! Wish they could just post your number out to you.
I don't think I would bother to enter Edinburgh marathon again, but that's just a personal thing as I can't get motivated to run races in my "home" city, but it was overall a good event and WOULD be worth doing for visitors as an "away" trip!

In short: Good event, that offers great chance of a PB!
In full: A good event at an unique distance!
With this being my only 15k race of the year I had no PB to beat which was a bit disappointing.
Would have been better if this was a proper race distance, like 10 miles or even half-mara. Still Only a small personal gripe, otherwise enjoyed a great day out!
