    Would be cool if they included the path around Barangaroo Reserve. My biggest wish however would be for the race to be moved to a cooler time of the year 10 to 15C would be ideal. 😊

    Glad they have moved the start. Way too many people to try to leave from Milsons Point. It took me 28 minutes to cross the start line. There was good atmosphere in Centennial Park in 23, the heat on that day was so overwhelming it really affected everyone's enjoyment.

    It still won't become a major in 2025, but at least a step in the right direction. Definitely needs to be in August as too hot in September for non-australians.

    Best not to think about the money spent 😂👍 I have just ticked off Marathon #23 by returning to Paris where I also ran my first in 2016. Think that I have done 12 different countries and 3 continents so far. Would have thought anyone mad who suggested that to me 10 years ago. Now saving for Boston 2025 (which will be my 4th Major not that I have ever had my eye on the 6⭐'s).

I have told so many running friends I have no idea how Sydney would become a major marathon with all those out and backs as its not what a world major is about.... These changes look SO much better, only a same you can't head up a different road prior to centennial back as those long stretches of seeing running go the other way is brutal! Really stepped up their game with this!

    Congratulations, that's so exciting! I stayed at the Citadines in Shinjuku which was about a 30 minute walk from the start line. Trains in Tokyo are great, but can be a bit confusing so I preferred to stay near the start line and get a train back at the end of the race. It was pretty affordable and a good hotel, close to restaurants and bars for post-race celebrations too! :)
