We are delighted to announce that the irresistibly enthusiastic BBC Radio presenter OJ Borg has been announced as Master of Ceremonies at the adidas Manchester Marathon 2023!

Expect to hear OJ’s resonant tones and characteristic energy heaping praise on participants as they come through the finish line. As an avid endurance-athlete himself, OJ will be able to relate to your sense of epic achievement and yes, those cramping legs. We know he’ll keep those spirits high and put a smile on many of your faces.

Check out the video of OJ answering our questions about MC-ing at the event on Sunday 16th April –  we can’t wait to have you, OJ!
