Squatting with Joe Wicks. Online quizzing. The elusive hunt for a bag of self-raising flour. It seems only yesterday that the UK was plunged into a national lockdown.

5. London Marathon arrives - months late and mostly outside London

When the annual London Marathon starts this Sunday 4 October, it will look worlds away from previous editions of the race. The UK's coronavirus lockdown forced the April race to be delayed for six months, and only a handful runners, all elite, will be taking part on the official course around St James's Park in central London. The 45,000 other participants will run or walk a marathon (26.2 miles, or 42km) at a time and place of their choosing on Sunday, logging their progress on an app. Here are some of their stories.
