This year, a grand total of 500 devotees from the wider Manor community took part, distributing on the high streets, door-to-door, at ‘Sacred Street Party’ events, as well as to shops, businesses and personal contacts. An impressive 51,710 books went out altogether, which made it the most successful Marathon at the Manor for over 15 years! The highestscoring male devotee was once again Ananda Caitanya Das, and amongst the ladies it was Guru Shakti Dasi.
