MANCHESTER, U.K. - April 16, 2018 - PRLog -- Sports Tours International lays a world of marathons at runners' feet in Spring 2018. This UK company's resources stand ready to link competitive runners with such major marathon hot spots as London, Paris and Rome as well as a few more unusual ones such as The Great Wall of China, Everest Basecamp and Stockholm.

"We are on track in 2018 for our most successful year ever with a big rise in bookings across both the spring and autumn marathon seasons," reports the company. Here's the line-up of upcoming events to consider.

April 22, 2018 London Marathon is one of the most popular, competitive and over-subscribed running events in the world.  Sports Tours International does not offer entries to the London marathon but does offer accommodation packages for runners and friends with staff support and transport to the start of the race.
