We have lots of exciting things happening this weekend for the Mash Direct Belfast City Marathon.
If you’re heading to the Expo and Pack Collection at Titanic Exhibition Centre or the finish line at Ormeau Park, make sure you say hello to the Belfast Live team.
We’ll have a stand at Titanic Exhibition Centre on Friday and Saturday with our large message board - stop by and tell us #YourRunningStory by writing a message on our wall.

Tell us why you’re running, who you’re running for or write a good luck message for someone you know that’s taking part.
We’ll have lots of free goodies and giveaways for all the family including Belfast Live pop sockets for your phone, balloons, sweet treats and more.
If you’re heading to the finish line to cheer on family and friends on Sunday, you’ll find our team at Ormeau Park. Get your photo taken with our Belfast Live frame and you could make it into our marathon photo gallery.
We’re also running a fabulous competition this weekend and you could win a £200 Belfast City Centre Gift Card to spend in over 160 City Centre businesses across retail, health & beauty, bars, restaurants and hotels in Belfast, plus the runner up will receive a £100 gift card.
All you have to do is submit your best race day photo. The competition is open to participants, spectators and volunteers. Our judging panel will select the top photos and put them out for public vote next week. You can submit photos until Tuesday lunch time, so make sure you take plenty of snaps on race day.
More details on how to enter here.
Don’t forget if you’re running this weekend, we’ll be first place with all the official marathon results and verified times on Sunday evening, so keep an eye on our social channels. We’ll send a text message to all runners on Sunday evening once the results are live.
We’ll also have all your race day coverage from announcing the winners and interviews with runners, to lots of photos and all the action from race day. We’ll be live on Facebook at the start line and finish line so keep an eye and you might spot someone you know as they take off to complete the 40th Mash Direct Belfast City Marathon.
Good luck to all participants!
