I LOVED this race. You are running through places where wild animals roam! I saw baboons and warthogs, and the elephants were not far either! It was a great experience with a few thousand participants including some truly top tier runners. The course is a little on the hilly side and the temp may be just a tad warm for the ideal marathon, but that doesn't take away from it at all. Along the course they hand out fruit and coke so if you need some gels bring them yourself. I found that the coke probably didn't help me. While in town, I did quite a few of the touristy things as well and I would recommend the white water rafting as my #1! The calm river boat ride after the marathon was also really enjoyable! Overall this was truly a great exerience and it will be a great memory I have in my life. Thank you to the organizer!
