Organisers of the London Marathon have told hopeful participants not to worry if they still haven't received an email letting them know whether or not they have a place in next year's race.
Next year's London Marathon takes place on Sunday, April 21 with nearly 50,000 people expected to take to the streets of central London to take on the 26.2-mile course. A record number of people applied to be in with a chance of getting a place in the race, which is one of the largest marathon events in the world.
For the first time, more than half a million people applied through the random draw, breaking the previous world record of 457,861.
