This Past Sunday around 35,000 runners prepared to run the London Marathon. The marathon twisted through the great sights of London, but this marathon was different then planed. Since the terrorist attacks made on the Boston Marathon this week officials are stepping up security. Police are trying there best to cover the 26.2-mile race, and their main concern is to secure the start and finish where people are more densely packed. Also, the people in the marathon are thinking about the bombing in Boston. Before the race they had a moment of silence for the victims of Boston, some runners were wearing black ribbons for respect, and London Marathon has pledged to pay $3 to “The One Fund Boston”. This is a great, way to help our victims.
