Ottawa is no. 1, veteran marathoner says

Today’s Ottawa Marathon isn’t just a successful local event, it’s one of the most scenic, friendly and well-organized marathons in North America.

But don’t take my word for it. That’s also the opinion of a runner who has completed 146 marathons, including some of the most popular races in the world: New York, Boston and the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, D.C.

« There are a lot of them that I enjoy, but Ottawa is my favourite of all. I really enjoy being in that city, in that race, more than any other. »

Sullivan has a unique perspective as not only a frequent marathon runner, but a pretty fast one. He runs six or seven marathons a year, almost all of them in under three hours. He has run the coveted Boston Marathon 25 years in a row, something only about 40 other runners have done. And he’s one of only two people to run the Philadelphia Marathon every year since it was launched.
