At the end of Manchester Marathon with finishers T-shirt & medal.

A close up of Manchester Marathon medal, shot in front of one of Manchester’s canals,

Pain and Glory.

Another shot at the marathon and a return to Manchester. A brilliant day out, epic crowds and managed to deliver on my target time.

Super happy with 4:52:32. Let this be the one that kickstarts those autumn goals!

Battled through what felt like a literal curse to finish this thing. But I did it.
