Oonagh CattiganGUEST
I did Belfast Marathon in May, just gone.

Peter BowesHOST
Where did you do that?
Peter ClerkinGUEST
So I did Belfast Marathon, which I would not recommend purely because a good piece of advice for people is pick a beautiful city.
Peter ClerkinGUEST
And Belfast is an interesting city, but it's not beautiful because you have to run around it for 26.2 miles.
Peter ClerkinGUEST
But it was more, you know, that box ticked.
Danny SquiresHOST
Um, it starts on Sunday at nine o'clock on the almost embankment.

Now, sometimes we can be really dehydrated and we don't even know it.
speaker_0UNKNOWN
The analogy I like using here, unsurprisingly, is when running Belfast Marathon early this year or various running things, sometimes you're running around and your head starts to feel like not very good.
speaker_0UNKNOWN
And you wonder what's going on with this.
speaker_0UNKNOWN
You don't feel thirsty, but you realize that somehow you're really lacking water.
Conor KeysHOST
Right.
Conor KeysHOST
Lads, I wrote on a few weeks ago about running the Belfast Marathon and needing some words of encouragement.

Conor KeysHOST
