A Runner from Denver, Colorado (5/19/2000)
"Easy course, poorly organized" (about: 1999)


COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 1  FANS: 2


Downhill course in which you could PR. Problems with getting enough buses to take you to the start of the marathon or half-marathon in time for the start. Big mess with late arriving clothes at the finish. Food and drinks about a mile uphill after the finish. Parking...basically, needs a lot of work to put a quality event.

 

A Runner from Stafford, Virginia (5/18/2000)
"Fast Course,nice location,could be a Pr" (about: 1999)


COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 3  FANS: 1


The Tuscon Marathon has a fast course. It starts out in this little desert town and you run to Tucson. It is a perfect down slope for 20-22 miles and then flattens out. I remember only 1 little hill on the whole course. I did have a little problem with the low humidity in Arizona , I was really thristy during the run. The race needs to iron out some problems they had at the start and finish . They did say they would fix these problems this year. A good race.
