We were commission by the organisers of Manchester Marathon to shoot their event (The 2nd largest in the UK and the 4th largest in Europe) on 10th October this year.
The Therme Manchester Marathon is one of the UK’s premier running events, famous for its fast, flat and friendly route. This year’s marathon was attended by 40,000 people. The 26.2 miles challenge, attracted a variety of athletes, from elite runners to those who thought completing a marathon would never be possible.
We were part of a huge team of photographers on the day and we were assigned to capture the various starts for both half and full marathon runners as well as imagery for marketing materials. We delivered 20 of our best images from the day on site (by 4:30PM), which our client used to publish on their social media channels and website.
Well done to all the runners and everyone involved for such great efforts and what was a well-planned event. Here are a selective few images from the day:
