In 2011 I ran the Victoria half marathon for the first time, and I have been back every year since. In 2017, I completed my first full marathon at this race and it was a fantastic first marathon experience. Crowd support is wonderful, great fuel on the course, beautiful running views, and I loved my marathon jacket. I will be returning to the half this year, 2018, and can't wait for race day!
