London Marathon this weekend On Sunday the usual blend of lanky athletes, fitness fanatics and wombles will be punishing themselves in the London Marathon. This year Kenyan super-athlete Tegla Louroupe will run for Oxfam - she last won it in 2000, and has broken eight world records since becoming the first African woman to win the New York marathon in 1994. If you're thinking about following in Tegla's footsteps next year, you might be interested to know about Oxfam's gold scheme. Among the perks are a massage at the end of the race, and an Oxfam pub en route where your friends can cheer you on in-between pints. We're already accepting applications for the 2006 marathon, for those who are keen as mustard.
