Liverpool Marathon 2011

This blog is brought to you by a number of runners who campaigned to get a Marathon Event staged in Liverpool in 2008 as part of the Capital of Culture sporting programme. Whilst that couldnt be achieved, Liverpool City Council promised to look at this for the future. They stuck to their promise and here we are, its on its way!

Local Hero - Geoff Smith

Liverpool has had some great sporting legends over the years; with the proposed return of the Liverpool Marathon we thought it would be nice to highlight one of the city’s greatest athletes, Geoff Smith.

Geoff, from West Derby, who ran for the Liverpool Harriers, won the Boston Marathon in 1984 & 1985. Wouldn’t it be great to have Geoff start the 2011 race – food for thought for the organisers!
