The Flora London Marathon is set to take place on Sunday 22nd April from 9am onwards and is expected to entice a record number of runners and spectators. Since the first marathon in 1981 over £200 million has been raised for world wide charities with over 75% running for a cause that has affected them or someone they know.

Thousands will treck the streets of London; the images most people enjoy are the thousands of fundraisers dressed up as animals, mascots and in many other hilarious costumes. If you would like to apply for the 2008 marathon there is more information about the event on the Official Flora London Marathon Website.
