Kiplagat leads hunt for crown
Some time around mid-afternoon today, theres likely to be another 40,000 or so people convinced of the impact of global warming. The 2007, and 27th, London Marathon promises to be the hottest on record - both meteorologically and metaphorically. The former will, of course, affect the latter, as the race organisers again attempt to assemble not only the biggest marathon field in the world, but also the best. But with the weather forecast for today promising an unseasonably hot 24 degrees, allied with 40 per cent humidity, even one of the best quality fields ever assembled may find it a little bit too steamy as they trace their way along the River Thames and attempt to add to the seven World records set in London since the race was first staged in 1981. And yet, with all that said, the womens race - which sets off in the cool of the morning at 9am local time, 45 minutes ahead of the elite men and the mass of humanity that comprises the bulk of the field - looks capable and likely to deliver one of the fastest, and most competitive, womens races seen outside an international championships.
