Public transport, particularly the London Underground, plays a crucial role in enabling marathon participants to reach their starting points on time. Delays caused by weekend engineering, signal failures, and overcrowding can lead to late arrivals, risking missed start times and negatively affecting marathon performance. Anxiety and stress from travel complications can also lead to early fatigue for runners. Notably, certain metro lines are more congested than others on race day, with the Jubilee Line facing significant crowding, contributing to the likelihood of delays for competitors.
Many marathon participants depend on the London Underground to arrive on time. Delays can lead to stress, affecting performance and undermining months of training.
