Four my second marathon I signed up to Manchester as i was told how the crowd all get behind you and it being flat. I wasn't disappointed in any way. On the start you have people doing warm ups to get you moving. Bang gun go and you away with so many happy faces. This is when the crowd get involved cheering you on most of the way. I had problem with my leg around 21 miles and the marshalls were brilliant. Help me to continue in a race i didn't want to give up. There was loads of water Station and people with lot's of sweets to help. The best bit was how friendly all the other runner's were talking and helping everyone along. The finish line come in to veiw and by now the crowd are both sides 10 deep willing you to finish. I'm not going to forget any of it.
