FLM announce 'strongest line-up'
BBC online has reported David Bedford's announcement of 'the greatest ever' men's line-up for the Flora London Marathon in 2006.

Race director David Bedford told BBC Sport:
"Without doubt this is the greatest men's field ever assembled.

"Fingers crossed all the athletes turn up healthy and we'll have the greatest marathon the world has seen. There's a strong chance of a world record."

Looking at the list of entrants it's hard to argue with the Great Man.
Glad I'm not competing this year.

Yikes. And after the unexpected retirement of SP, I'd say Haile has a clear run this year...
