Manchester Marathon 2019

It was just a fab day. The weather was superb for running - overcast, cool, dry. The organisers are saying that 20,000 people participated this year - I'm not sure how many were running the full marathon compared to the relay race. So well supported, I am in awe of anyone who will give up an entire Sunday morning to hand out jelly babies and think of original comments to shout to runners.

I just had a blast this year, from start to finish. Even my dreaded 17-20 mile marathon dip didn't go too badly. I still love the alcohol free lager at the finish line.

Running buzz.

Manchester - still running for you.
