Yes I would recommend it - a bit crowded at the start coming out of the stadium, and then some narrow patches, but good crowd, and certainly flat all the way!
Scenery is pretty nice - apparently you run past a windmill - but my head must have been down as I never saw it!!
Good buzz coming in to the stadium at the end.
Good organisation.
Next year is their 40th anniversary of the marathon - so might be extra special Panda if you're thinking of doing it.
Now I'll have a few weeks off from training - before I start all over again, as got a ballot place in London next year.
