I loved this Marathon
This has to be one of my favourite marathons.
Everything was just spot on, expo nice & compact, number collection simple & straightforward. Plenty of portaloos at the start, well stocked and regular aid stations. I liked the 2 lap route which took in the best of the beautiful city of Mainz. The post race refreshments were fantastic, alcohol free Erdinger, coke, water, fruit, energy bars, cakes and all continually replenished. Bag drop and pickup was simple and there were showers at the finish if required. Nice medal & good quality t-shirt. Mainz is easy to reach by flying to Frankfurt and then hopping on a 20min train journey. I'd definitely recommend this Marathon.

Top-Notch Organization
German organization at its best. The course is flat but could be improved by reducing the number of turns. A very good marathon in a small and friendly city.

well done
I ran the HALF MARATHON. Need more distance markers so runners can gauge their pace. The spectators along the half-marathon course were really motivating.
