Am keen to do an Autumn marathon: Looking across Europe these appear to be the only “big” marathons with spaces left (Dublin is sold out)

Any thoughts /views?

Amsterdam obviously easier to get to from the SE of the UK, but is pretty marginal...

Did the Frankfurt one (relay whistle) 3 years back and I spectate every year.

Half of it is scenic and running back into the city with the skyline coming into view is very nice. There are some less than scenic bits too though.

It is however fantastically organized, loads of people will be spectating and the atmosphere is very nice.

Forgot to say : the course is fast and suitable to reach a good time, if that is important smile
