Vixen Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Hey guys! I'm considering making a second trip to Portland this year to enter the Portland Marathon. Those of you who have done it, what has been your experience with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishe Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Hey! I did the portland marathon last year and am doing it this year as well. It is a very well-organized marathon - nationally renowned actually! The course is relatively flat, and the weather is typically good running weather (cool that time of year). There are lots of aid stations and lots of people supporting on the sidelines. You should totally do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarz Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Must be a very scenic run I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I've never participated or watched. I'd love to be around when it is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boisei Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I've run it several times. It's a good marathon, mostly scenic and fast! There's a long boring stretch from about mile 7-12 but it's early enough in the race to make it through fine and get to the nicer parts. I have a long race that I do each year that's a couple of weeks before the Portland Marathon, so I don't really race it. I just go out and have a nice run! It's a hard one for me to turn down.
