Congratulations to Lee Howell

adidas Manchester Marathon 2026

A huge well done to Victory Fasteners Sales Director, Lee Howell, who completed the Adidas Manchester Marathon yesterday in an impressive 3 hours 49 minutes.

Not bad at all considering this was a late entry with just three weeks of focused preparation.

And true to form… Lee is back at his desk first thing this morning, albeit with a pair of well-earned tired legs.

The event itself was something special, with 42,000 runners taking to the streets of Manchester, supported by over 150,000 spectators – a fantastic atmosphere and a real celebration of community and endurance.

This run is just part of the journey, as Lee now looks ahead to the Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge next month – a 100km test along the spectacular World Heritage coastline.

A fantastic achievement – best of luck for the next challenge, we’ll be following this one closely. Watch this space.
