Someone recently mentioned that he's just finished running a marathon that begins with each letter of his name and some of us may want to copy him. But it's hard to come up with marathons with some letters. Can anyone help? As many egs as poss for each letter...
A few starters for 10:
Abingdon, Amsterdam
Beachy Head, Berlin
Cork, Chicago
Dublin
Edinburgh
Florence
G
H
I
J
K
London, Leicester
Milan?
N
O
Paris
Q
Rejkavik, Rotterdam
Seville
Toronto

But looking at the marathon guide takes all the fun out of it.... Far too sensible.
UmB - pretty certain there isn't a Slough one - even on your birthday. But.... Xiamen??? Hmmm
