In short: Really well organised and plenty of water and lucozade
In full: I thought the race was very enjoyable it was hillier than last year but much better than running through the subway!! Plenty of drinks available which was great on such a hot day. Will definately be doing it next year.

In short: Too hot and poorly organised
In full: I really enjoyed my first trip to Edinburgh but wouldn't go back for the marathon. There was no lucozade until mile 10 and even then none left when I reached it (I was near the back) Water was luke warm and quite infrequent for the conditions. At one point wasn't sure I was going the right way (along the prom) as it was full of people, pushchairs and bikes and no signage. Also nearly got run over several times by relay runners but the marshalls were very supportive.
