BBC Breakfast was filming from Frodsham this morning as presenter Louise Minchin began her 2020 London Marathon from the war memorial on Frodsham Hill.

Louise was joined at the misty scene by ITV's Robert Rinder, who was also going to participate in the woodland trail route.

In the background, three other people were also preparing to begin their run.

"There is a sense of atmosphere here," said Louise. "On the way here there were people running in the dark doing the London Marathon.

"So there are 45,000 people all over the world running this Marathon at different times on trails and courses of their choice. It's a really extraordinary atmosphere."
