This year's event will be the 60th edition
There are high hopes that this year's edition of a popular running competition on the Isle of Man next month could be the biggest yet.
The Easter Festival of Running returns from 29-31 March in what will be the landmark 60th iteration of the event.
In an occasion which attracts hundreds of entries from both on and off-Island, last year saw its biggest attendance yet with in excess of 500 participants.
Local athletics correspondent, Dave Griffiths explains why he thinks the festival can get such high demand:
Advance entries for the event are open until Saturday, 16 March - details are available HERE.
