Jonathan Edwards looks back at an inspirational day where 35,000 athletes took to the streets of London, each with their own ambition.

The men's race featured Kenyan world record holder Patrick Makau, who was out to improve on his third placed finish in London last year. Edna Kiplagat became world champion in Daegu in 2011 and was looking to build on that in the women's race. Five-time men's wheelchair champion David Weir was in action aiming to equal Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson's record of six London wins, while Amanda McGrory was back to defend her women's wheelchair title.
