There are event shuttle buses but it's quite a walk to where they go from and always massive queues. I use the public buses, no issue at all with them and google maps will tell you which bus stop to go to


Yeah, ditto, I got public bus back to town no probs. Its a net downhill route. Great for a PB. Good luck. Welcome to Fetch. :-) G

Entry confirmed, managed to find a place on Air BnB which isn't too far from the start as well. At least I won't have to remortgage to secure a room at the Travelodge :-)

Ive just secured a place for the mara.

Ive booked a place in Musselbrough so close to finish. It's cancellable but everything in the centre was a silly price unless i was prepared to share a dorm.

Im guessing i won't be the only runner staying there but my concern is acces to the start. Ive looked at trains and they don't start running until after 10am.

Anybody with experience of staying out that way the night before?

Got something to say?

Afternoon Fetchies, I'm after some advice please.

I'm thinking of entering the Edinburgh Marathon next year and wanted to hear from people who have done it before. Likes, dislikes etc
