SPAR BUDPAEST MARATHON
Congratulations to the men from Norwich Road Runners who had the tough unenviable job of representing the club at the Budapest Marathon. Judging by Mark's report below the whole trip was one long hardship!

Marks Race Report
it’s a well organised race, the whole area is closed to traffic for the weekend of the event. The course crosses the Danube multiple times. It does follow the river for large parts but this doesn’t make it a flat race, 1000 ft of elevation (according to our garmins).
Support was good at points, particularly the bridges. There are several points where spectators can see runners more than once.
9am start Temperatures 19 degrees-23 degrees humidity 93-100%
The Hungarian people were amazing, recommend the ruin bars, szimpler kert in particular,
The thermal spa was pretty special near heroes square as was heroes square, plenty of history and places of interest.
We toured with big bus company, hop on hop off around the city and a nice boat cruise.
