<b>Day 14</b><br>

Today the NMYP May Marathon runners completed their second full week on their virtual journey and added another 24.4 miles to their total. So far they have accumulated a total of 373.1 miles made possible by 25 team members working hard on their personal goals and adding to a magnificent team effort. The team have averaged 1 marathon per day for 14 days in a row ... that is something to be proud of. 

Setting off from Stoke on Trent the team ventured north through the villages of Knypersley, Gillow Heath, then through Macclesfield to finish the day near Prestbury.

<p><b> 

Strange fact 14</b><p> Macclesfield is a busy market town on the banks of the River Bollin in east Cheshire. Situated between Cheshire Plains and the Peak District the town is surrounded by fabulous scenery. The town is famous for its once thriving silk industry and boasts the only Silk Museum in the UK and was once the world's biggest producer of finished silk. There were 71 silk mills operating in 1832. Random fact, the blues singer John Mayall was born here in 1933 <p>

<b>Shout out to:</b> Hannah Johnson for completing her personal full marathon a great effort and well done. A shout out to Hugh Letts and Sommer Foskett for recently completing their half marathon distance and Luke Bass x2 marathons which is amazing. Plus well done to all the  NMYP team including efforts from Alex Yilmaz, Elizabeth Thomas and Owen Rockcliffe  as part of the 25 runners . Some good running weather this weekend, enjoy and good luck as you get closer to the marathon distance and beyond.  Keep on running.
