Race report by Katie:
Today I completed the Windermere Marathon, my first one. It was a relatively small and very friendly reincarnation of the Brathay Trust route, organised by the Great Run team for the first time in 2025.
A total of 444 runners completed the hilly and super scenic route around the majority of Windermere.
I finished in 5:17 – though this was always more about the event than the time for me, I’m pretty chuffed! I can’t really believe I did it, certainly didn’t imagine I’d ever achieve that when I started running 7 years ago!!
The encouragement from Lostock has been fab, thank you to everyone for making me feel so at home in this club 💚🌳⛰️🎖️🏃♀️
