Thousands of people are heading to the capital to take part in the London Marathon and raise money for charity today.

People from across Barnet, Enfield, Haringey, Harrow and Borehamwood will run the 26.2 miles through some of the city’s landmark buildings.

After months of gruelling training, they will be put through their paces as they race towards the finish line.
