You’ll Never Run Alone.

Graham Hill's medal. View this email in your browser It's a considerably shorter newsletter this week after last week's marathon effort. There is Graham Hill's report on the Liverpool Rock 'n' Roll Marathon which certainly sounded fun, if you can ever describe competing in a marathon as fun. There's also Richard Liggatt's report on the first of this season's Winter Series races, where he took the opportunity afforded by Ben and Matt's absence to claim the accolade of being the first of our club runners to finish and also claim a podium place. There is a note on the issue of copyrighted photos. Finally if you have not received the newsletter recently, all editions are available in the news section of the club's website. Take care Best wishes David Jones Photographs. We have had an issue recently concerning copyrighted photographs. We submitted some to The Herald a couple of weeks ago that were copyrighted and for which we did not have authority from the photographer for them to be published. This resulted in The Herald unfortunately having to reach a settlement with the photographer. I am extremely grateful to all of you who submit photos to accompany race reports but can I ask that you do not submit official photos. There is an understandable assumption that if you've paid for a photo it is okay for publication. This is not always the case. It is usually just for your own private use. We often use photos taken by Barry Cornelius, indeed in this week's newsletter I am using one of his photos taken at Sunday's Winter Series race but this is by agreement with Barry and always on the strict understanding that he is acknowledged.

The course includes the famous Liver Building, Liverpool Town Hall, The Beatles Statue, The Cavern Club, Goodison Park Stadium - home to Everton Football Club, Anfield Stadium - home to Liverpool Football Club, Penny Lane, Stanley Park, Prince’s Park, Sefton Park and the Chinese Arch before the home straight on the promenade, alongside the River Mersey, finishing at the Exhibition Centre Liverpool. The Marathon course was not only lined with supporters along the way but also live bands playing all sorts of music every mile or so. I ended up running with my friend Wendy Woodhouse as part…
