Steve Edwards

After running his first marathon at the age of 18 in 1981 and vowing never again!, Steve went on to achieve the official Guinness World Record for what many consider to be the ultimate multi marathon feat, running 1000 official marathon races in the fastest average finish time.

Known by many in the UK marathon running community as “The Godfather”, Steve has run a competitive marathon race on average every 13 days for the last 36 years and along the way has accomplished many other records & landmark achievements which have resulted in him becoming one of the most successful multi marathon runners in the world.

His motto has always been, “Never underestimate your potential, follow your dreams” and utilising his philosophy of the 4Ds to achieve that 5th D(ream).
