I am not sure I would want to carry one running a marathon, but the
last
time my son and I ran one together he carried a disposable film camera.
We
got some great photos of Dublin and all the people along the way. I would
suggest the smallest digital you can find, hopefully one that does not
require any input other than pressing the button which is easy to press.
After a few miles thinking about settings is not going to happen.
