Olympic athlete Rose Harvey has described crossing the finish line at the London Marathon as "really, really special" - all the more so because she broke her leg in the last one she ran. Harvey was running the marathon for Team GB at the Paris Olympics when she suffered a stress fracture of the femur - but still managed to finish the race.

Sunday's London Marathon set a world record for the number of finishers, eclipsing the previous mark of 55,646 in New York last year, organisers said.
