Testimonials

Marshalling on behalf of The Daily Mile Stranmillis University brought a unique joy, embodying the spirit of community health and wellbeing. We witnessed the determination etched on the runners’ faces as all participants of all ages embraced the commitment to a healthier lifestyle. Their energy was contagious and the air buzzed with excitement as we cheered, offered encouragement, and echoed their determination in their gruelling journey, one step at a time. The atmosphere was vibrant with positivity, endurance and determination. Serving as a Daily Mile marshal and being part of the monumental Belfast City Marathon movement, has truly been a fulfilling, rewarding and enjoyable experience. 

We really enjoyed the Expo and meeting people from all around the world who travelled to take part in the Belfast City Marathon. Heard many stories and got to dish out local tips for visiting Belfast! The day flew in! Totally recommend other clubs getting involved in the Expo, we were all buzzing and inspired, and all agreed to definitely come back next year.
