London Marathon hopefuls are unable to find out if they will run in 2023 after its website crashed.
The ballot for the 2023 race, which is due to return to its normal slot on April 23, closed in early October with runners required to sign up to stand any chance of getting a spot.
Those who had entered were sent e-mails from organisers on October 24 but the message asked them to click through onto the London Marathon website.
