Belfast City Marathon – Northern Ireland

The 2018 Belfast City marathon will be the 37th time for this sports event – it is the 37th anniversary for it. There was a huge number of runners taking place in this marathon and since it also took place on the Bank Holiday Monday, this number was actually expected to come from the beginning. There were about 17,000 people who hit the road for the marathon, wheelchair race, team relay and fun run. Out of those 17,000 people, about 3,000 were taking part in the gruelling 26 miles – the numbers were really huge, but since this was a street marathon event, we have to say that this was an expected thing.
