A man has died after collapsing during the London Marathon on Sunday. The 36-year-old runner was less than three miles from the end of the legendary event when he collapsed.
Ambulance services were at the scene within minutes. However the medics could not do anything to save him and he died shortly afterwards.
Race organisers said on Monday: "With deep sadness, we confirm the death of a participant in the 2022 TCS London Marathon. A 36-year-old man from South East England collapsed between mile 23 and 24 and, although he received immediate medical treatment and an ambulance was on the scene within three minutes, he died later in hospital.
