The elite men's race is headlined by Ethiopia's Tamirat Tola, who is the New York City Marathon champion, Mosinet Geremew, who is the seventh-fastest man in history, and Kenya's Alexander Mutiso Munyao.
The course begins at Greenwich Park and ends on The Mall, where runners will cross the finishing line.As with previous London Marathons, an array of famous faces will be among the runners, each raising money for their chosen charities.
