The order in which the elite women’s and men’s races will take place at next year’s two-day London Marathon is to be decided by a game of rock, paper, scissors.
The unusual method will determine which of the two elite races is held first during the event. The supplied information does not state who will take part in the game or when it will be played.
Both the elite female and male races are scheduled as part of next year’s two-day London Marathon. No further details have been given about the timetable or the eventual outcome of the decision.
The latest position is that the race order remains undecided and will be settled through the game rather than being announced in advance.
