"Great event! Perfect organization, excellent course, magnificent atmosphere! Simply the best running conditions.
What amazes me the most is the fact that whole Rotterdam was cheering us: 42km of supporters, music and party on both sides of the course kept the runners motivated from the beginning to the very end.
Looking forward to join Tsubaki team again on Rotterdam's marathon 40th anniversary!"
