It takes dedication, strength and discipline to run a gruelling 26.2-mile marathon course.
But it takes something else to complete the feat wearing a sweltering head-to-toe fancy dress costume.
Every year, hundreds of London Marathon runners take to the streets of the capital in fabulous fancy dress costumes to raise extra cash for charity... or just for the fun of it.
Whatever the reason, these runners make the London Marathon bring a smile to the faces of fellow runners and spectators alike.
This year a rhino, a pantomime horse and a Sir Jimmy Savile lookalike were among the notable outfits.
Here’s a selection of our favourite costumes from today's race.
