M. C. from Falmouth, Cornwall (5/31/2009) "you must do this at least once in your life" (about: 2009) 6-10 previous marathons \| 6+ Tresco Marathons COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 A fantastic marathon run by the local people of Tresco. The course is quite tough and consists of 7.5 laps of the island with 3 hills per lap. The scenery is fantastic, with excellent views of the surrounding islands as you run around the course. There are plenty of water/feeding stations around the course. The support during the race from locals and supporting families and friends is second to none. The medal presentation in the village hall is a very personal touch that makes Tresco special. A spectacular post-race buffet put on by the local chefs is not to be missed. A truly memorable marathon that should be done by every runner at least once.
C. F. from Burton upon Trent, England (4/14/2008) "Testing course on scenic, traffic-free island" (about: 2008) 6-10 previous marathons \| 1 Tresco Marathon COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 Excellent support with pre and post massage, and champagne buffet medal ceremony to finish. Small restricted field of 125, and runners have to raise a set sponsorship amount for cystic fibrosis. Cannot fault the organization; definitely one to do....
L. G. from Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire (5/8/2006) "Great fun, loved it." (about: 2006) First Marathon COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 Excellent day. The organization was brilliant, the course was tough but a challenge, and the other runners were very generous with their comments and encouragement. Thoroughly enjoyed the day; one of the best I have had. Thank you.
