The 2015 London Marathon is the 35th edition of the event. Some 20,000 people wanted to run the first race on March 29, 1981; 7,747 were accepted. There were 6,255 finishers, led home by the American Dick Beardsley and Norwegian Inge Simonsen who staged a spectacular and fitting dead-heat at the rain-swept finish on Constitution Hill in 2:11:48. Joyce Smith, 43 years old and a mother of two, broke the British record to win the women’s race in 2:29:57, then the third fastest time ever by a woman. The course records today stand as 2:04:29 on the men's side, set by Kenya's Wilson Kipsang in 2014, and 2:15:25 on the women's side, set by Paula Radcliffe in 2003. The latter time still stands as the world record.
