We’re delighted to announce that the 2014 Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon will be televised. The highlights will be shown on Channel 4 on Sunday 19th October starting at 7am; just one week after the race takes place. Rob Walker is joining us again as one of the presenters for the event, and this year he’ll be joined by Katharine Merry, bronze medal winner in the 400 metres at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. The Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon takes place in and around the beautiful and historic city of York, with the 7000 runners starting at the University of York’s Heslington campus before heading out of the city and finishing back at the campus. You can see the route the course takes in the image below and if you’re in or around York, why not come down and join in the fun at the Plusnet Spectator Zones. 
If you can’t catch the Channel 4 show, there will be other airings later in the year across BT Sport, Sky Sports and British Eurosport.
