AND finally – a special Sunday LUNCHTIME edition Marathon picture special to go to runners/supporters in London this afternoon. Some shift.

And in the Marathon Supplement, writing from Ben Bloom, Jessy Parker Humphreys, Paul Hayward, Alastair Hignell, Sam Dalling, a Where's Wally-esque map, graphics from Katie Riley & Bex Sander.

Hope you enjoy, and do let me know what you think. Won't get everything right, etc.
