Hello gadgy, sorry but I hadn't realised anyone else was doing this (fetchie-wise obviously). Only just over 3 weeks to go - are you ready?

Good luck! I had thought of the 30K last year but circumstances intervened - maybe next year. Hope you get it a bit cooler than the half did.

is it working ;-) ? I actually saw a bit of the full marathon years ago - morning started cool and a bit misty, warmed up, but not too much. Last year was unseasonably warm.

Not sure if anyone still watching this old thread.

Some of us from our club are thinking of going to Budapest later this yea ( or Tallinn or Odense )r, does anyone know if the course is pretty flat ?

I believe Budapest is quite a hilly city, but looking at the course map, it seems to stick pretty close to the river with lots of weaving back and forth, so maybe they avoid the hills. Couldn't see an elevation profile on the website.

Appreciate any feedback on this, or general info on the race, good/bad points etc. Thanks

It's flat! I admit to DNFing - that bliddy river did my head in. But Budapest itself is fantastic and I'd go back tomorrow as long as I didn't have to run along the river!
