Back to Lakefront Marathon Information & Reviews
A Runner from Milwaukee, WI
(6/13/2000)
"Well organized race with no fan support" (General Comments)
COURSE: 3 ORGANIZATION: 3 FANS: 1 One would think a city the size of Milwaukee could have a major marathon to its name. The Lakefront Marathon lacks community support and spectator participation. Good vistas of Lake Michigan don't make up for a course that lacks fan support start to finish. Nearly the whole marathon runs along the lake. PRs are very possible with its general downhill run. Weather is unpredictable by the lake depending on wind direction. You could freeze if there's a lake breeze or overheat with a land breeze. Either way the finish is tough. |
