In full: Excellent atmosphere, brilliantly run and the whole experience is Fab.

Great to see such a huge event running like clockwork, brilliant for beginners and most people fun for a charity close to their heart.

This event is the one to do if you are a beginner and will be hooked. Runners come from all over the world, and thousands of ponds are raised for charity.

The Start is well run and the finish is brilliant and scenic looking over the sea.

The Red Arrows are part of the Fixture!

Well run friendly staff, and the course markers, water stations and first aid etc is brilliant.

Well Done North East! See you again next Year

In short: The whole experience for my first marathon was good. The start was well organised, baggage lorries were well run, and the run was great. Friendly crowd variety of scenery. The finish was poor, a big let down for my first marathon. You ended up in
In full: A street of houses. No crowd to meet and greet and to top it off a long walk which i could have done without to the bus back to the city. Will have to thnk if i will do this one again next year. Will deff do another marathon but not sure where. Highlight: the start , low's the finish. Thought my first ever marathon finish would feel special, not the case
