CEO of WeRoom Thomas Villeneuve said: "Our data shows how expensive renting a room in London can be.

"The areas surrounding the first miles on the marathon route are certainly more affordable than those along the home stretch near Westminster and Waterloo, but paying almost £700 a month to rent a room in the capital can still be a costly affair for many Londoners."

The race takes place on April 24, at 10am, with spectators gathering along the route to support the runners. If you're going along, be sure to get the best viewing spots across the city.
