Good week for:

Older runners, with new figures showing that in the 2016 London Marathon, competitors aged 55 to 64 ran just as fast as those aged 25 to 34. Both groups took, on average, just over four hours and four minutes to complete the course. The fastest group were the 35- to 44-year-olds (3:53:58), followed by the 45- to 54-year-olds (3:56:16), according to analysis of data from a running app worn by nearly 6,500 runners.
