7 participants who ran their FIRST EVER MARATHON with us yesterday!

We are humbled that so many participants chose to run their first ever marathon at our event. It truly makes us so proud to see you tackle the distance for the first time and share your journey with us.

In honour of all of our first timers, we’ve chosen just 7 of our favourite social media posts, from runners who took the 26.2 mile plunge yesterday, on Sunday 16th June. So let’s find out how it went down – and if they’d ever do it all over again…

  1. Congratulations Louise, whose emotional finisher’s post gave us #allthefeels. What an amazing cause – we’re so proud of you too!

2. Well done Amelia who celebrated in style with a bottle of bubbly at the finish. You smashed it!
