Your guide to the London Marathon 2024 including date, start time and TV coverage details.
The London Marathon is one of the most prestigious events in world sport – and it returns this weekend.
The capital will be awash with over 50,000 runners of all abilities and many more fans, families and friends strewn along the route this Sunday.
Of course, it's not just the mass event on the schedule this weekend with elite wheelchair, women's and men's races to savour.
Reigning men's champion Kelvin Kiptum tragically passed away aged 24 earlier this year following a car crash in his native Kenya.
The 24-year-old achieved a stunning time of 2:01:25 last year before setting the marathon world record of 2:00:35 in Chicago last October prior to his death. He will no doubt be remembered by all this Sunday.
In the women's race, Tigst Assefa is expected to lead the pack in a bid to break the world marathon record for women's-only races.
