Four-time London champion Eliud Kipchoge and Olympic champions Sifan Hassan and Tamirat Tola among the favorites in Sunday's London Marathon.

Despite a slightly fresh morning, with temperatures on the starting line around 9C first thing, by the afternoon temperatures are likely to peak at 18/19C (64/66F) in Manchester and around 21/22C (70/72F) in London. This will likely make it London’s fourth warmest marathon in its history, the warmest being in 2018 when the mercury hit 24.2C (76F).
