More than 1,000 runners from Sussex were among the 56,000 who took part in the 2025 TCS London Marathon – a race watched and followedby millions in the UK and worldwide.
Ethiopia's Tigst Assefa took victory in the women’s race. She has broken the women's-only world record but Paula Radcliffe's women's course record - set with male pacemakers - stands for another year at least. Kenya's Sabastian Sawe won the men's race on his debut.
Switzerland's Marcel Hug claimed the men's wheelchair title for a seventh time while compatriot Catherine Debrunner took the women's wheelchair title in a new course record.
And of course there was the usual rich variety of fun runners, charity runners, celebrities and weird and wonderful costumes.
