London-Sana
The London Marathon 2022 kicked off today in the British capital, with the participation of thousands of runners and athletes.
And the British newspaper The Independent reported that the starting point was in Blackhitch, near Greenwich, where a 26-mile run around the capital will be carried out, passing through several places to reach the vicinity of Buckingham Palace.
Some roads were closed, traffic restrictions were imposed, and some bus services were diverted due to the marathon.
The London Marathon is one of the 6 largest marathon races in athletics, along with Boston, New York, Chicago, Tokyo and Berlin.
The marathon was scheduled to be held last April, but it was postponed due to measures to prevent the Corona virus.
