A FAIRY TALE IN NEW YORK – FINISHING 26 MILES WITH A PROPOSAL
THE WINNER OF OUR EXCLUSIVE COMPETITION WITH THE RUNNING CHANNEL IS SET TO CONQUER THE 2024 NEW YORK MARATHON!
HOW TO TRAIN FOR YOUR SPRING MARATHON DURING THE WINTER MONTHS: WITH OUR AMBASSADORS!
We know that the situation, around the world at the moment feels a little bit strange for everyone, and it feels as though normal life has been put on hold indefinitely. Maybe previously, we’ve all taken for granted just how fortunate we are to be able to conquer legendary climbs, run through the streets of iconic cities, and experience amazing events and adventures across the globe. We think that staying positive, and looking back at the good times we’ve had is a brilliant reminder that things will get better, and the good times will return in the future.
Last week, we asked to see your favourite #FINISHLINETHROWBACK; a picture from an event you’ve either completed or been to previously. We’ve absolutely loved seeing these, it’s been refreshing to see our community share some of the amazing experiences that they’ve had. Thanks to everyone who sent in a photo or tagged us in a social media post. Here’s some of our favourites…..
Dear @sportstoursint my wife & I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary on the slopes of Alpe de Huez while watching the @LeTour riders climb that mountain not once but twice during the Tours 100th anniversary.

I’ve enjoyed harder journeys to other finish lines but @MarathonMtBlanc takes the scenic prize #ThrowbackThursday 2018 and it was super hot. What an experience 🙂 https://t.co/Xxn0NfojgI pic.twitter.com/nd1tAe9npY — Ross Litherland (@Ultrarunandbike) March 26, 2020

View this post on Instagram Throwback Thursday to the finish line of my favourite marathon. Right now it seems a million miles away but I cannot wait to get back to that Chicago start line, last time I went on a @sports_tours_international place (which was amazing and amazingly well organised), this time I got a time qualification . . . Lunchtime strength and 5 easy miles on the plan after work, let’s do this! #mckirdytrained A post shared by Kirsty ❤️ (@shortgirlrunner) on Mar 26, 2020 at 4:41am PDT

In these times we understand that it’s difficult and that it feels like there’s not much to be positive about, so we hope that our #FINISHLINETHROWBACK is a great way to look back, and remember just how good it’s going to be when we can take on world class events again in the future.
For now, stay safe and stay active at home if you can. If you’re a runner, cyclist, triathlete, or sports fan, keep sending us your #FINISHLINETHROWBACK and tag us in on social media
