Team GB Olympic hope Emile Cairess finishes third in the London Marathon behind Alexander Munyao and Kenenisa Bekele, as 26-year-old becomes first Brit since Sir Mo Farah in 2018 to make the podium

Emile Cairess has run the second fastest British marathon time ever to finish third at the London Marathon in an Olympic qualifying time of 2:06.46.  Kenya's Alexander Munyao eased to victory, 14 seconds ahead of Ethiopia's Kenenisa Bekele, with Cairess in third and fellow Brit Mahamed Mahamed in fourth - while also qualifying for the 2024 Olympics.  Cairess became the first British man to finish on the podium at the London Marathon since Sir Mo Farah back in 2018 - with the four-time Olympic Gold medallist the only Brit to have set a faster marathon time. 

London Marathon runners pay emotional tribute to Kelvin Kiptum - the Kenyan athlete tragically killed in car crash aged 24 - ahead of race he won in stunning fashion last year

Thousands of London Marathon runners honoured the memory of the late reigning men's champion Kelvin Kiptum ahead of Sunday's race. Kenyan runner Kiptum was 24 when he died alongside his Rwandan coach Gervais Hakizimana, 37, in a road accident in his homeland on February 11. Kiptum ran the second-fastest marathon in history in London last year, setting a time of 2:01:25, just 16 seconds outside the world record.

The London Marathon is getting off with a touching tribute to the Queen as 40,000 runners took the streets in honor of the Queen

Before the grueling 26.2-mile course through London, there was a moving interpretation of the national anthem at the start line in Greenwich Park this morning. Smiles and groans would be common on the faces of those who participated today, as thousands of thousands of spectators gathered to demonstrate their love. Many of those taking part in the big event will be fundraising, with some of them having devoted personal accounts to explain why they are putting their bodies through the wringer. As visitors make their way through the crowds, they will also see the city's historic landmarks, including Tower Bridge, Canary Wharf, the London Eye, Westminster, and, of course, Buckingham Palace on the home straight. Also legendary are the now-famous fancy dress costumes that some runners will sport, with gigantic sunflowers, Minions, and even Big Ben's Elizabeth Tower all set to draw attention as they travel around the course.
