A new world record has been set in the elite women’s race at the London Marathon.
Olympic champion Peres Jepchirchir set the fastest-ever time in a race without male pacemakers.
Huge crowds gathered around the 42-kilometre route to cheer on a record 50,000 people taking part in the event.
The London Marathon is the world’s largest one-day annual fundraising event.
Last year, it raised 63 million pounds.
