The London Marathon is a fixture in my calendar every year, whether its running it or shouting at strangers from the pavement, I love it. 2020’s edition was a closed event for obvious reasons and people were running their own virtual marathons around the globe, and I was tasked with producing films for the live BBC broadcast which saw user-generated clips edited together to help tell the story of this amazing day. Sitting down at 5am with an editor with no footage probably should have been daunting but we saw it as a challenge and embraced it.
