Foxy Aug 2015 10:58am, 25 Aug 2015 33,507 posts	0 Foxy I just booked an Easyjet flight, split a hotel & cost £98 inc race entry & 2 nights 3* hotel but that was almost 5 years ago.

DeeGee Aug 2015 2:02pm, 25 Aug 2015 16,648 posts	0 DeeGee Anyone else going to Warsaw this year? It's the last time it'll finish in the national stadium, and there's a free fleecy cape and personalised motto wristband for everyone.

Foxy Aug 2015 5:18pm, 25 Aug 2015 33,509 posts	0 Foxy loads of folks from the UK are Minardi - there's a facebook page I was all set to but got offered a race in Kent 2 weeks later & in a moment of madness thought it was a good idea !! I did Malaga last year - good event quite quick & beats the UK in December any day - Paul A is going back I think & knows where the Sherry bar is
Ultra Kanga Kazzaaaaah!! Aug 2015 8:09pm, 25 Aug 2015 16,676 posts	0 Ultra Kanga Kazzaaaaah!! I enjoyed Malaga but it's not the greatest of courses.
Dvorak Aug 2015 8:27pm, 25 Aug 2015 10,698 posts	0 Dvorak Antigua Casa de Guardia- one of my favourite places :-). Malaga wine, to be picky ;-). Someone I know did is as his first marathon last year and enjoyed it.
paul a Aug 2015 12:27pm, 26 Aug 2015 10,792 posts	0 paul a New course though for Malaga this year, similar but different. Definitely heading back to the sherry bar. Lots of us back this year, even a 600th celebration I hear as well.
