The Riviera marathon took place this year on Sunday 8th November in the beautiful sunshine of the Cote d'Azur.

Warm autumn sunshine and clear blue skies provided perfect conditions at the start on the iconic Promenade des Anglais in Nice at 8am. These friends look like they enjoyed their journey and even managed to find the energy to film it...and talk through some of it! Congratulations to all the finishers.
