Dear Stavros,

Thank you for a wonderful day once again. Although I ran a lifetime worst the atmosphere was
wonderful. To me you are still the No 1 Race. Hope to return once again in 2010.

Hi Stavros,

Thanks for a well organised and smooth run race.

Just a little note, I think it is great that you provide so many trophies for all the age groups, I was very happy to get 2nd in my age group. Thanks for a great race and well run event. I am not surprised that the event is gaining in popularity as word of mouth spreads. I hope to participate again in the future. Thanks to all the hard work of the volunteers and no doubt your own organizational efforts.

All the best for the future.

Hi Stavros,
 
Just want to thank you and your team for a great race, I took part in the full marathon and so had the full effect of the wind.  This is the smallest marathon I have participated but one of the best organised, I was very impressed with the frequency of the water stations and the number of marshals in the road works areas, it must have been a nightmare for you!
 
Again many thanks and see you next year.

Hi Stavros,

Firstly a thank you for organizing such a well run event on Sunday. Shame about the wind, I'm sure it spoilt many peoples wishes to run a good time. I ran the half-marathon in 1.51 and had hoped for 1.45! 

Once again, thank you for a good day!

Αγαπητέ Σταύρο,

Σε ευχαριστούμε για τον ωραίο αγώνα που διοργάνωσες και τις εμπειρίες που μας χάρισες! Περάσαμε πολύ καλά και η προτροπή της συζύγου μου, Marie Leautey που μας ξεσήκωσε όλους να έρθουμε ήταν πολύ πετυχημένη.

Θα τα ξαναπούμε στο μέλλον σε κάποιον αγώνα δρόμου.

Φιλικά,

Hello to the Organiser of the Cyprus Marathon,

Back in France after participating in the Marathon and I wanted to give a comment from the outside, nice start pity we were not going in the direction of the wind and away from roads with traffic. Throughout the Organisation is prefect and deserves more participants, arrival very friendly and welcoming.

Thanks,

Dear Stavros,

I was very pleased with running on March 15th which was very good organized and made me big pleasure. My personal results were bad but I will make it better next runs. I wish you success in future.
