Thanks for the suggestions. I ran the Connemarathon and Dingle marathon, and both were pretty hilly (but the views were really awesome). Another I have on my list, Flanders Fields, seems to be flat, but looking at the finish times from the past few years, doesn't seem to be too fast. I'll check the ones you mentioned, especially Wales, as I could just take a boat there and make it a weekend.

Regardless of what time you're going for, I do recommend the Sub-3 World Marathon Index if you're looking for a fast course.
