Seems like ideal weather for running after yesterday in London when frankly, it tipped it down. Only the slower runners might get wet.
The British runner with probably the best hope didn’t even run at the Olympics. Liz McColgan won the race in 1996 and will be today’s official starter for the women’s race. Other British winners are Joyce Smith, Veronique Marot and of course Paula Radcliffe.
