Things don’t always go to plan in marathon training, so if you’ve been preparing for the 2023 London Marathon but now think that you can’t run in the race, it is wise to defer your place to another year.
Whether it’s because you’ve succumbed to one of the most common running injuries, or you haven’t had the time to train, it’s far better to run another year rather than limp your way around the London Marathon route without getting satisfaction from it.
