The London Marathon in Sheffield

The 2020 London Marathon event was cancelled because of the coronavirus crisis. But this runner took up a different challenge - to run 10k without crossing a road. He decided to run further - a half marathon around his local streets at the same date and time as the bigger event in London should have happened. Here he is on lap 14 of the 21 laps his run required.
