London Marathon - walking and wombling

Less than a mile into the race and one runner has already lapsed into walking. Not surprisingly the race results do not show her finishing. Let's hope she manages it next time. The Womble was defying calls from the race organisers not to wear restrictive costumes on one of the hottest Marathon days yet. Surely s/he should have been coming at the back anyway to pick up everyone's litter?
