The London Marathon, scheduled for this weekend, is set to feature a diverse group of participants, each running for personal and charitable causes. Jasmin Paris, celebrated for her Barkley Marathons victory, has been invited to start the race. Numerous individuals, including a father who battled leukaemia and a man diagnosed with stage four metastatic bowel cancer, are participating to raise funds for cancer research and support. The event will cause significant road closures across central London, and participants and spectators are advised to plan their travel accordingly. The marathon is also a platform for raising awareness and funds for various charities, with many runners supporting cancer research organizations.
