Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Or rather, the Queen has better things to do with her time than go across London to the actual start, so will just do it from her garden.

Discuss.

Why don't the people who organise the London marathon get someone who has worked hard for their position in life, to reflect the fact you have to work hard to run a marathon, rather than someone who was born in a particular bed at a particular time?

She could even have rolled out of bed around lunchtime to present the winners' prizes at her London residence.
