Record breakers and finish line proposals: London Marathon in pictures
The 2026 London Marathon will do down in the record books.
Kenya's Sebastian Sawe stunned spectators to become the first marathon runner ever to officially log a sub-two hour finish at 01:59:30.
The capital's biggest sporting event also saw record-breaking participation with about 59,000 runners taking part and hundreds of thousands more lining the 26.2 mile route to show their support.
As well as records and personal bests being set, the London Marathon is set to have raise tens of millions of pounds for charity. It holds the title as the biggest one-day fundraising event, with nearly £90m raised last year.
