I have done a few marathons in short 62 in most European cities and I have to say Helsinki was the worst I have done. It wasn't traffic free and was carried out on the back streets of the city instead of showing off the city. There was no support and no thoughts given to the route. It was a missed opportunity to sell the city. Disappointing.

I like to run big city marathon to see and enjoy it. The starting and finishing point of this course was miserable.

Start line was organised well and route was good to see the city of Helsinki. Finish line organised well and received impressive amount of goodies and fab medal. Was disappointed with lack of crowd support and no Marshall’s were cheering either. It might be a Finnish thing! But there were some music and DJs and bands that high was good. Some of the route around the city was narrow with lots of runners and the traffic including trams were halted by Marshall’s until there were gaps in runners so this was disappointing that the roads were not closed as such. Day before the queue to receive number was enormous so arrive early.

Felt like an overall serious run and would have liked more crowd support.
